Nephrology
PDF20171344 pages33.5 MB
This fifth edition of Henrich's Principles and Practice of Dialysis provides an in-depth exploration of dialysis techniques and patient management. It discusses key metrics for dialysis effectiveness such as Kt/V and URR, and compares them to native kidney clearance. The text also details current KDOQI guidelines for initiating dialysis based on uremic symptoms rather than a specific GFR threshold. Furthermore, it examines fluid balance, hypertension, and left ventricular hypertrophy in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) compared to hemodialysis (HD), highlighting potential differences in outcomes and management.
