Abstract
Cardiac function and renal function are closely related, because the heart and the kidneys carry out the hemodynamic regulation of the body. When there are bidirectional alterations in both organs, a series of compensating mechanisms are activated, which cause harmful effects of one over the other. This is known as Cardiorenal Syndrome. There are current standard Nursing protocols available for the management of heart failure and renal impairment; however, it is necessary to increase information for an optimal understanding of the cardiorenal interaction, and to apply the best scientific evidence into care. To this aim, we present a case record addressed at Primary Care, with the development of a plan of care prepared after the Nursing diagnoses were identified, derived from nursing assessment following the model of the 14 Basic Needs of Virginia Henderson.
