Description:

This new edition continues to provide practical and accessible information on all aspects of dialysis therapy. It explores current topics in straight-forward language to help you master the underlying concepts and does not assume extensive knowledge of chemistry, physiology, or the dialysis procedure. The pocket guide examines the physiologic basis for treatment and the pathophysiology of relevant disease states.
