This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research provides $189,000.00 to the University of Utah to conduct a 5-year research program with the goal of developing the Principal Investigator into an independent, patient-oriented clinical researcher focusing on the pathophysiology of cardiogenic shock (CS) and its overlap with the cardiorenal syndrome.

The key objectives of the research are to: 1) evaluate the dynamic association of pathophysiologic vasodilation in CS with acute kidney injury (AKI) and mortality, 2) determine if angiotensin II deficiency is associated with CS vasodilation independent of the systemic inflammatory response, and 3) estimate the causal effects of vasopressors on AKI and death in CS after accounting for time-varying confounding from circulating angiotensin II levels. The research aims to advance understanding of the mechanisms linking CS, AKI, and mortality, and provide a potential new therapeutic pathway for treating this life-threatening condition.
