Review

“The depth of coverage of peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis, and continuous renal replacement over the 29 sections and 98 chapters is impressive. The ebook also comprehensively covers less common nephrology topics in pediatrics and pregnancy while also giving recommendations for nutrition and psychosocial issues. The coverage extends to include the management of frequently stimulated comorbidities of dialysis patients. The repeated use of well-designed tables and graphs is useful. This is an excellent resource and a thorough reference for many topics in nephrology.” — Brian Scott Armentrout, MS (University of Kentucky College of Medicine)
