Description
Welcome to our four-episode series: Raising Awareness of Hepatorenal Syndrome Acute Kidney Injury (HRS-AKI). In our final episode, our host Muhamad Nadeem Yousaf, MD, speaks with Vivian Ortiz, MD, and Neil Shah, MD, to delve into critical aspects of HRS-AKI. They cover the prognosis after initial management, the significance of reversing renal impairment for liver transplant candidates, the predictive role of MELD score in HRS-AKI, treatment's impact on liver transplant waiting lists, decision-making between liver transplant alone or simultaneous liver-kidney transplant, timing considerations for kidney transplant post-liver transplant, and factors affecting post-transplant prognosis.
Each episode of this series corresponds to a journal article from a September 2023 supplement of Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology (CGH), the official clinical practice journal of the American Gastroenterological Association, focusing on addressing knowledge gaps in HRS-AKI.
