      Patients with the dual burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and chronic congestive heart failure (HF) experience unacceptably high rates of symptom load, hospitalization, and mortality. Currently, concerted efforts to identify, prevent and treat HF in CKD patients are lacking at the institutional level, with emphasis still being placed on individual specialty views on this topic. The authors of this review paper endorse the need for a dedicated cardiorenal interdisciplinary team that includes nephrologists and renal nurses and jointly manages appropriate clinical interventions across the inpatient and outpatient settings. There is a critical need for guidelines and best clinical practice models from major cardiology and nephrology professional societies, as well as for research funding in both specialties to focus on the needs of future therapies for HF in CKD patients. The implementation of crossspecialty educational programs across all levels in cardiology and nephrology will help train future specialists and nurses who have the ability to diagnose, treat, and prevent HF in CKD patients in a precise, clinically effective, and cost-favorable manner.

      Interventions to empower cardiorenal patients: A systematic review
      (Wiley, 2021) Vazquez-Calatayud, M. (Mónica); Ania-González, N. (Noelia); Olano-Lizarraga, M. (Maddi)
      Aims: To identify the most effective interventions to empower cardiorenal patients.Design: A systematic review of the literature has been carried out.Data sources: The PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO and Cochrane databases were re-viewed, and journals in the field were manually searched between January and February 2020.Review methods: Five randomized clinical trials and quasi-experimental studies that met the selection and CONSORT & TREND methodological quality criteria were selected.Results: The evidence supports that there are no existing interventions aimed at em-powering cardiorenal patients. However, the interventions to empower people with chronic kidney disease and heart failure suggest that their integration should address seven domains: patient education, sense of self- management, constructive coping, peer sharing, enablement, self-efficacy and quality of life.Conclusion: A gap has been revealed in the literature regarding the empowerment of cardiorenal patients. This review provides relevant information to help design, imple-ment and evaluate interventions to empower these patients by describing the strate-gies used to empower people experiencing both chronic conditions and the tools used for their assessment.Impact: There is a need for further research to design, implement and evaluate a mul-tidimensional intervention that favours the empowerment of cardiorenal patients by using valid and reliable instruments that measure the domains that constitute it in an integrated manner. Interventions aimed at empowering the cardiorenal patient should include seven domains: patient education, sense of self-management, constructive coping, peer sharing, enablement, self-efficacy and quality of life.

      The needs of families who care for individuals with kidney failure on comprehensive conservative care: a qualitative systematic review
      (2022) Vazquez-Calatayud, M. (Mónica); Amezqueta-Goñi, M.P. (María Pilar); Ania-González, N. (Noelia); Martín-Martín, J. (Jesús)
      Background: Integrating the family of patients with kidney failure on comprehensive conservative care could benefit patients, families, and the health care system. However, there is a knowledge gap in this phenomenon since no systematic review has focused on the families' needs who care for individuals with kidney failure on comprehensive conservative care. Objectives: To understand the primary needs of families who care for people with kidney failure on comprehensive conservative care. Method: A systematic literature review of qualitative studies, followed by a content analysis was carried out. PubMed, CINAHL, and PsycINFO databases were used to search for articles published in English and Spanish between 2010 and 2021. The ENTREQ guideline was used for reporting. Results Five relevant studies were included in this study. The analysis has allowed identifying key aspects of knowledge, psychological, social and spiritual needs of family members of patients with kidney failure on comprehensive conservative care. Conclusions: This systematic review has revealed that families experience a lack of information and continuity of care by health care professionals. Added to this is the psychological burden they bear due to the feeling of indefinite care in time and uncertainty about the death of their loved one. All this, without the necessary support from their immediate family environment and social institutions. In light of these data, a paradigm shift in society and the health care received by these families is essential.
