Investigation of diagnostic and correction methods for cardiorenal syndrome in dogs

The problem of the “heart-kidney” relationship is extremely relevant in modern veterinary medicine due to the high prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in domestic animals, particularly dogs, on the one hand, and the epidemic of cardiovascular disease (CVD) on the other. This relationship between the cardiovascular system and the kidneys is known in veterinary medicine as the “cardiorenal syndrome”. The article is devoted to the urgent problem of diagnosing and treating cardiorenal syndrome in dogs. Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) is characterized by the mutual influence of cardiovascular and renal diseases, which complicates the underlying pathology and increases the risk of complications and mortality. The paper emphasizes the importance of using a comprehensive approach to diagnosis, including blood and urine tests, non-invasive blood pressure measurement, X-ray and ultrasound. The use of complex treatment with cardio- and renoprotectors shows positive dynamics and helps to stabilize the general condition of the animal. The study aimed to investigate a clinical case of cardiorenal syndrome in a dog, starting from the diagnostic stage, including history taking, examination results and symptoms, and ending with the appointment of appropriate therapy. It is noted that accurate diagnosis and determination of the stage of the disease are necessary to identify cardiorenal syndrome and develop therapeutic plans. The article describes in detail the materials and methods of the study, the results of clinical examination, laboratory and instrumental examinations, as well as the effectiveness of the prescribed therapy. A comprehensive clinical examination of a dog (Yorkshire terrier, female, 11 years old) was performed, which allowed to establish a diagnosis and develop a treatment plan, including the use of cardio- and renoprotectors, which helped to stabilize the general condition of the animal. The discussion of the results emphasizes the importance of timely diagnosis and an integrated approach to the treatment of multimorbid pathologies, in particular cardiorenal syndrome. The conclusions emphasize the need for further research to improve diagnostic and therapeutic methods aimed at effective treatment and prevention of cardiorenal syndrome in domestic animals, including dogs
