Hepato-renal syndrome

Hepatic-renal syndrome (hepatarenal syndrome) develops in adults aged 35 to 60 years. The disease can be primary or secondary. The causes are overload of the liver and kidneys due to improper functioning of the internal organs. The liver performs the function of purifying the blood. If the liver is overloaded, the blood begins to stagnate and blood pressure rises. The kidneys are responsible for removing excess fluid and clearing the blood of toxins. In the syndrome, hepatorenal dystrophy is diagnosed in a quarter of patients with hypertension. Symptoms of hepatorenal syndrome: swelling, high blood pressure, shortness of breath, hyperthermia, loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting. There is often a feeling of constant fatigue and general weakness. Often with this disease, patients have high levels of bilirubin in the blood, which contributes to the development of jaundice.
