Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects close to 50% of people with heart failure, specifically those with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF) or preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The interactions between the heart and kidney can significantly impact these patients' health and quality of life.
In this CardioBites video, we explore the impact of estimated glomerular filtration rate variability in patients with heart failure.

This discussion looks at how abnormally elevated aldosterone levels negatively affect cardiovascular and kidney health and contribute to the progression of heart failure with mid- range and preserved ejection fraction.
