Acid-Base and Electrolyte Disorders

A Companion to Brenner and Rector's The "Kidney"

Lee Hamm , Thomas Dubose

editore: Saunders (W.B.) Co Ltd

pagine: 576

Unlike traditional textbooks on the subject, "Acid-Base and Electrolyte Disorders" focuses less on physiological and pathophysiological concepts and more on providing specific recommendations for therapy and patient care - resulting in an excellent clinical resource that is also an ideal core curriculum or exam review. Many of the topics in this book are not covered in any other resource! This book contains: the latest information in fast-moving areas such as molecular biology and genetics; the most authoritative information available from expert authors and contributors; excellent figures and tables which clarify the important concepts throughout; detailed reference lists which direct you to the best sources of further information, including cross-references to Brenner & Rector's "The Kidney".

A History of the Treatment of Renal Failure by Dialysis

J. Stewart Cameron

editore: Oxford University Press

pagine: 368

This book tells the extraordinary story of how the function of the first - and so far almost the only - human organ was replaced by a machine, and the "artificial kidney" entered medical and public folk-lore. A practical artificial kidney, or dialyser, came about by advances in science followed by the acquisition of new synthetic materials which made the application of these ideas possible. However it was the dedication and persistence of a number of talented pioneers who pressed ahead against professional opposition to achieve success, first in the treatment of temporary, recoverable kidney failure, and then permanent renal shut-down which made it a success. The apparent high cost and limited availability of this form of treatment immediately raised ethical questions which had never been questioned before, centering around equity of access to treatment, when and if treatment could be denied, and - worst of all - the agonising decision of when, once established, it should be stopped. Spiralling costs as the true number of people with kidney failure became evident raised major political and financial questions, which were addressed in different countries in different ways which reflected - but also helped change - patterns of how medical care is provided. In developed countries, the problem could be solved by allocating a disproportionate amount of money to the treatment of relatively few kidney patients, but in the developing world the cost of treatment still limits its availability, as it does all forms of modern health care. Nevertheless, today almost one million people world-wide are maintained alive following terminal kidney failure, two thirds of them by various forms of dialysis and the remainder bearing kidney transplants, almost always placed after a period on dialysis. The story is also the sum of the often heroic lives of these hundreds of thousands of patients, a few of whom have today been maintained alive and active for more than 35 years, and many of whom suffered known, but also unexpected complications as a result of their treatment.

Optimal Treatment Strategies in End-stage Renal Failure

Claude Jacobs

editore: Oxford University Press

pagine: 320

During the past 4O years there have been major conceptual and technical advances in the domain of dialysis methods and renal/organ transplantation for long-term treatment of patients with End-Stage Renal Failure (ESRF). This now enables better defined, more selective strategies of treatment to be undertaken, according to patient-specific criteria such as age or underlying renal disease also taking into account the lifetime duration of these treatments. For many patients this implies necessary successive changes of mode of therapy depending on their availability, occurrence of medical/technical complications or failure and social-environmental and economic factors. This rationale has inspired the structure of this volume which is divided into four sections: 1/ A descriptive overview of the various modes of renal replacement therapy (RRT): Extracorporeal dialysis/filtration, peritoneal dialysis, kidney and multi-organ transplantation.2/ Most appropriate indications and use of these methods, respective advantages, drawbacks and outcome in children, pregnant women and elderly patients 3/ In diabetic patients and in patients with hereditary/congenital diseases. 4/ The ethical issues generated by this new domain in Medicine by limitations in treatment facilities or medical dilemmas for acceptance, best technical choices, withdrawal or termination of RRT in individual patients. Finally, contributors form Eastern European Countries, Africa and Far Eastern Countries analyse the current status of RRT in their respective geographical area and the ways and means required for a wider implementation of RRT in thus far lesser economically developed countries where the great majority of the populations still have no access to these life-saving therapeutic procedures.

Dialisi e trapianto

A companion to Brenner & Rector Il rene

Owen, W. F. , Pereira, B. J. , Sayegh,M.

editore: Verduci

pagine: 660

Negli ultimi 20 anni, Il Rene di Brenner e Rector ha rappresentato la risorsa centrale per un’autorevole informazione corrente nel campo della nefrologia, ma l’incessante espansione delle conoscenze sulla fisiopatologia e sulla gestione terapeutica delle malattie renali, sulla dialisi e sul trapianto, e i rapidi progressi tecnologici hanno condotto alla necessità di libri di accompagnamento de Il Rene più trattati. Di conseguenza, il Dott. Brenner ha pianificato un trattato più esauriente sulla dialisi e sul trapianto renale. L’intento della nostra iniziativa è stato quello di procurare ai lettori un flusso di informazioni ininterrotto riguardo al trattamento dei pazienti con insufficienza renale allo stadio terminale (end-stage renal disease, ESRD). Nel perseguire questo obiettivo, abbiamo cercato di fornire una panoramica generale dei principi di gestione terapeutica della ESRD, nonché un esame più focalizzato dei principi fisiologici e dell’applicazione clinica delle differenti modalità di terapia sostitutiva renale. Per la realizzazione di questo testo abbiamo invitato eminenti scienziati e docenti nei campi dell’emodialisi, della dialisi peritoneale, della terapia intensiva nefrologica e dei trapianti a fornire un riesame approfondito, dal piano di laboratorio al piano clinico. Ogni autore è stato stimolato a discutere i concetti fondamentali che sottendono il trattamento dei pazienti con ESRD, a fornire un’esauriente valutazione critica dei trials clinici e a presentare raccomandazioni razionali per il trattamento clinico. La nostra strategia è stata quella di trattare gli aspetti clinicamente più importanti della dialisi e del trapianto e di classificarli in sei ampie sezioni: Principi e pratica dell’emodialisi, Principi e pratica della dialisi peritoneale, Assistenza a lungo termine del paziente dializzato, Terapia di sostituzione renale nel malato critico, Problemi etici e Trapianto renale. Ogni sezione è stata diretta da un curatore dell’opera e ha incluso un breve riesame dei fondamenti di ogni modalità di terapia di sostituzione renale, seguito da argomenti di importanza cruciale per la gestione ottimale del paziente con ESRD. Ogni capitolo è autonomo e fornisce al lettore un’esauriente revisione della materia, assieme a un elenco completo delle fonti bibliografiche chiave.

Acute Renal Failure

A Companion to Brenner and Rector's the "Kidney"

Bruce Molitoris , William Finn

editore: Saunders (W.B.) Co Ltd

pagine: 538

The most common reason for a renal consult in a hospitalized patient is acute renal failure (ARF). This new companion book to Brenner and Rector's "The Kidney" provides the reader with the complete information necessary to understand, diagnose, and treat this serious and challenging condition. The first part of the book describes recent progress in the understanding of the pathophysiology of ARF, explaining the tremendous strides in the molecular and cellular aspects of cell injury and recovery. The remainder (and majority) of the text emphasizes the clinical spectrum and management of the different disease processes causing ARF. In these chapters, ARF is discussed in terms of its many associated disease processes such as pigment nephropathy, burns, infectious disease, and gastrointestinal and liver disease. This format allows for rapid referral and an in-depth understanding of all clinical aspects of ARF, including its most important aspect of management: to prevent the disease from becoming chronic, ultimately leading to dialysis and then transplantation.

Oxford Textbook of Clinical Nephrology

Alex M. Davison , Christopher Q. Winearls
e altri

editore: Oxford University Press

pagine: 3166

The first edition of the "Oxford Textbook of Clinical Nephrology" established itself as a clinical reference text for practising nephrologists worldwide. The second edition comes five years later, during which time there have been significant advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis of renal disease and advances in therapy. The text argues that placing existing treatment on a firm scientific basis or stopping ineffective or dangerous treatment is as important as introducing proven new therapies, and all the contributors have taken this fully into account.
