As the kidneys become less able to remove toxins from the blood, these substances accumulate in the bloodstream and circulate to other organs. The increased levels of toxins have deleterious effects on many systems throughout the body, including heart function. Arteries may become more susceptible to atherosclerosis due to plaque overgrowth within their walls caused by elevated cholesterol levels. Hallmarks of kidney disease-related heart failure are lower ejection fraction, or “leaking” mitral valve leaflets that prevent adequate blood flow through this chamber of the heart. Other signs include shortness of breath, abnormal heartbeat patterns (arrhythmias) and fluid buildup around or inside tissues (edema). If left untreated, chronic kidney disease can lead to edema-related congestive heart failure, a life-threatening condition requiring urgent hospitalization and intervention.

Can Kidney Failure Cause Heart Failure?
No, Blood flow to the kidneys is vital for its function, especially as it relates to waste filtration. Even before evidence of reduced kidney function presents itself, cardiovascular factors that compromise blood circulation can begin affecting urine filtration as well as overall function. In the early stages, this is reversible with medications and lifestyle changes. As the disease progresses through various stages, heart failure becomes a risk as the kidneys become less effective at eliminating toxins from the blood. In late-stage kidney failure, dialysis or kidney transplantation is required to correct the problem.
Inadequate blood flow due to atherosclerosis contributes to kidney disease by reducing the number of nephrons, or functional units of the kidney. This may be due to ischemic damage, in which blood flow is cut off through constricted arteries caused by high cholesterol levels. Atherosclerosis can also lead to atherogenic damage, in which plaque deposition within artery walls blocks blood flow directly. When the kidneys are exposed to blood flow that is too low, they become less able to carry out their functions.

Frequently asked questions about kidney failure and heart failure
1. How does kidney failure affect the heart?
Failing kidneys cannot remove salt, water and waste, so fluid and blood pressure rise and put strain on the heart. Anaemia, mineral imbalance and inflammation add to the strain. Heart and kidney disease often worsen each other.
2. What are the signs that fluid is overloading the heart?
Breathlessness, especially when lying flat, swelling of the legs, rapid weight gain over a few days, a persistent cough and fatigue. Seek urgent medical help for severe breathlessness or chest pain.
3. How can I protect my heart if I have kidney disease?
Control blood pressure and blood sugar, limit salt, avoid smoking, keep to a healthy weight, take medicines as prescribed and attend regular check-ups.
4. Which tests monitor the heart in kidney disease?
Blood pressure, ECG, echocardiogram, cholesterol and, where needed, cardiac enzymes. Your nephrologist and cardiologist will advise.
5. Can I take homeopathic medicines along with my heart and kidney medicines?
Homeopathic medicines are highly diluted and are not known to interfere with other medicines, but please tell your nephrologist and our specialists about everything you take, including herbal and ayurvedic products. Do not stop, skip or change any prescribed medicine, diet restriction or dialysis schedule on your own; any change should be discussed with the doctor who prescribed it.
