A member asked:
How long can a 94 yr old live with renal failure and congestive heart failure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable: All 94yo patients have a high overall mortality rate. Renal failure and congestive heart failure are two conditions which can contribute to a rapid decline and death over the short term. Conversely, if the renal insufficiency is mild, and the CHF is well managed, limited life expectancy may not be unduly hastened.
