Replacement of Renal Function by Dialysis
Completely revised edition of a global resource first published in 1978 and previously revised in 1989. Sixty-three contributions are arranged in sections on the pathophysiology of the uremic syndrome--principles and biophysics of dialysis; technology of dialysis and associated methods; quantification and prescription; complications; pharmacological considerations; special clinical situations; organ system and metabolic complications; and organization and results of chronic dialysis. The aim is to give understanding of the complexities of modern dialysis apparatus so that practitioners can make the best use of the technology--and so that fledgling nephrologists can avoid the temptation to by-pass the theory and the nuances.

Hemodiafiltration
This book gives a complete description of online hemodiafiltration, in five sections. It is unique in the systematic and complete way in which hemodiafiltration is described. Each chapter is completed by a point-to-point summary of essential information, in a separate text box. Part of the book is dedicated to the theoretical background of convective clearance. In this part, safety issues and quality control is reviewed (especially on the quality of water for dialysis and substitution fluid), as well as equipment (both dialyzers and machines) with which this treatment can be performed. As recently the results of several randomized controlled trials were available, the effect of hemodiafiltra...

Hemodialysis
Ronco and Cruz (both Dept. of Nephrology, San Bortolo Hospital, Vicenza, Italy) present a collection of 36 articles focusing on the physiological aspects of hemodialysis treatments as well as practical questions in the dialysis unit. Originally created as a supplement to the lectures presented at the 17th Annual International Course on Hemodialysis, a three-day event held in Vicenza, Italy, the text provides a valuable reference for the clinician interested in keeping up on developments in the field of hemodialysis. Thirty-six contributions by some 80 international academics, researchers, and practitioners are organized into ten sections covering dialysis technology, vascular access, epidemiology and practice, inflammation, fluid management, uremic toxicity, treatment efficacy, advanced techniques, calcium/phosphate homeostasis, and correction of anemia.
