Description

Denise Veltkamp and co-authors pool, in a 2026 review, the long-term heart risks that follow a bout of acute kidney injury. Surviving damaged kidneys was once the whole concern. Evidence now ties the injury to later heart disease as well.

The team searched two major databases for studies tracking patients at least a year. They compared heart attacks, strokes, heart failure, and cardiovascular death between people with and without the injury. Pooling asked whether risk grows with injury severity, duration, or care setting. Clinicians discharging kidney patients need to know whose hearts deserve watching. A pooled estimate sharpens discharge planning beyond the kidney clinic.
