Cardio-renal-anemia syndrome : a report of three cases

الملخص EN

Patients with chronic kidney diseases (CKDs) and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) present with various degree of anemia.

Anemia has been associated with poor outcome in patients with CKD and CVD.

CVD is the commonest cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with CKD.

CKD causes anemia and CVD, and this rapidly deteriorates when anemia is not corrected.

This triad of CVD, CKD, and anemia has been termed cardio-renal-anemia syndrome.

The objective of this study is to highlight the importance of cardio-renal-anemia syndrome, their relationship, and management.

Three patients with various stages of CKD who presented with anemia and cardiovascular abnormalities are reported.

The patients responded well to various interventional measures, with improvement in their clinical and laboratory parameters.

Cardio-renalanemia syndrome is an entity that should be identified.

Early and appropriate intervention leads to better outcome.
