Raising Awareness of Hepatorenal Syndrome Acute Kidney Injury (HRS-AKI)

Course Title:  Raising Awareness of Hepatorenal Syndrome Acute Kidney Injury (HRS-AKI)

Overview

Welcome to our new four-episode series: Raising Awareness of Hepatorenal Syndrome Acute Kidney Injury. This podcast program is in conjunction with four journal articles published in AGA’s Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology (CGH), which are dedicated to addressing knowledge gaps in hepatorenal syndrome acute kidney injury (HRS-AKI) including how to diagnose, new diagnostic tools and emerging treatment options.

The series, hosted by Muhamad Nadeem Yousaf, MD, examines key information selected from the journal articles, focusing on adopting a patient-centered approach to understand the pathogenesis, diagnosis and emerging treatment options of HRS-AKI, while also delving into best practices for transitions of care.
