Hepatorenal Syndrome (HRS)

   Purpose, Prevention & Protection

   • I understand HRS is kidney failure caused by major blood-flow changes from advanced liver disease, often with belly fluid.
   • I know infection, bleeding, dehydration, vomiting, diarrhea, fluid drainage, or some medicines can trigger kidney injury.
   • I know HRS can worsen quickly and is diagnosed only after my team checks for other causes of kidney failure.
   • I seek urgent care early because fast treatment may improve kidney function and help bridge me to liver transplant.
