Characteristics and Outcomes of Patients with Cardiogenic Shock Complicated by Acute Kidney Injury Requiring Hemodialysis
In the setting of Cardiogenic Shock (CS), impaired biventricular function can lead to an acute decrease in renal function via reduced renal perfusion and increased renal venous pressure. In a nationally representative sample, we sought to analyze the characteristics and outcomes of patients hospitalized with CS requiring renal replacement therapy (hemodialysis) for acute kidney injury (AKI-HD).
