A 42-year-old patient, previously healthy, developed cardio-renal syndrome after contracting COVID-19, experiencing symptoms like difficulty breathing and chest pain. Doctors warn of a rising trend in heart and kidney diseases among the younger population due to dietary habits, with cases potentially leading to dialysis if not intervened timely. With over 2 million chronic kidney disease patients in Taiwan and an annual increase of 12,000 individuals needing dialysis, the recent surge in COVID-19 cases has seen instances of myocarditis and kidney injuries, emphasizing the importance of early intervention and prevention to avoid renal failure.
