Cardiorenal metabolic syndrome is a group of interactive conditions affecting cardiovascular, renal and metabolic systems. Treatment for this multidimensional syndrome is complex, partly as a result of the current lack of definition and inclusion and exclusion criteria. Symptoms can fluctuate and follow a nonconforming pattern, and treatment is dependent on the severity of the underlying conditions involved. A multidisciplinary service model can integrate care for patients with cardiorenal metabolic syndrome and promote shared decision making. Research indicates that the use of an integrated care model also has the potential to improve clinical outcomes, while strategies such as interdisciplinary education and the promotion of self-management opportunities for individuals can improve quality of life.
