Applied Home Hemodialysis is an essential resource for nephrologists, renal fellows, and healthcare professionals involved in the care of patients with end-stage kidney disease. As the landscape of dialysis care rapidly evolves, with a growing emphasis on home-based therapies, this comprehensive textbook fills a critical education gap in the field of home hemodialysis.
This volume offers a practical, case-based approach to home hemodialysis. It covers crucial topics such as modality selection, dialysis adequacy, cardiovascular outcomes, vascular access, and program development. The book also addresses unique aspects of home hemodialysis, including use in pediatric and elderly populations, psychosocial considerations, disaster management, and green nephrology practices
Written by experts in the field, this book is both a didactic and bedside reference for the practicing nephrologist. As the nephrology community works towards increasing home dialysis utilization, this textbook offers an indispensable guide for practitioners at all levels of experience.
This book is a comprehensive reference to home dialysis. There is a great need for this resource, which spans the spectrum of learners from the medical student to the well-practiced attending physician. Recent texts that have been authored on the topic have focused on peritoneal dialysis, but often home hemodialysis is limited to a single chapter in a work on dialysis. This book addresses this gap and provides instruction on the rapidly expanding field of home hemodialysis for all levels of nephrologists.
The topics covered in this book include a survey of currently available technology, management of various complicating conditions, home hemodialysis program development, and patient training and home preparation. All chapters follow a consistent, easy-to-follow structure, which features a case presentation, didactics, and a visual abstract. Written by experts in the field, this book is both a didactic and bedside reference for the practicing nephrologist.
