A member asked:
Why does a patient in renal failure have decreased cardiac output?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not always related: Renal failure in and of itself is not realted to cardiac output, there are many things that can cause both renal failure and decreased cardiac output, but they are not always related. However if someone has really low cardiac output, one could develop renal failure b/c not enough blood is getting to the kidneys.
