Factors Predicting Renal Outcomes in Hypertensive Emergencies With Severe Renal Impairment: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study
Serum LDH, potassium levels, and PLT are useful predictors of renal prognosis in hypertensive emergencies with extremely poor renal function. In some cases, severe renal damage can be ameliorated by appropriate antihypertensive therapy. A positive response to treatment often signifies a favorable prognosis. Furthermore, early initiation of RAS inhibitors may be beneficial for lowering BP and providing renal protection.
