ABSTRACT Objectives: to verify the relationship of cardiovascular diseases with acute kidney injury and assess the prognosis of patients in renal replacement therapy. Methods: a cohort study, carried out in a public hospital specialized in cardiology. Treatment, comorbidities, duration of treatment, laboratory tests, discharge and deaths were analyzed. Results: of the 101 patients, 75 (74.3%) received non-dialysis treatment. The most frequent cardiological diagnoses were hypertension, cardiomyopathies and coronary syndrome. Hospitalization in patients undergoing dialysis was 18 days, hemoglobin <10.5g/dl and anuria in the first days of hospitalization contributed to the type of treatment. Each increase in hemoglobin units from the first day of hospitalization decreases the chance of dialysis by 19.2%. There was no difference in mortality. Conclusions: the main cardiological diseases were not predictive of dialysis indication, and clinical treatment was the most frequent. Anuria and anemia were predictors for dialysis treatment.
