Medicine, Chronic Renal Disease Chronic Renal Disease comprehensively investigates the physiology, pathophysiology, treatment, and management of chronic kidney disease (CKD). This translational reference takes an in-depth look at CKD with no coverage of dialysis or transplantation, which are both well-detailed in other textbooks and references. Chapters in the basic science sections are devoted to the scientific investigation of chronic kidney disease within the context of patient vignettes. Chapters in the treatment and management sections are geared towards the most common problems faced by nephrologists in the management of chronic kidney disease. Each chapter relates specific illnesses to the CKD framework instead of covering only the specific illness. Readers will learn how the management of CKD in a polycystic kidney disease patient differs from other CKD patients. This award-winning reference features a series of case studies and questions related to multiple chapters, covering both clinical aspects and pathophysiology. Questions are open ended, progressively more difficult, and repetitive across different patient clinical problems and different chapters. The latter will allow for comparing and contrasting pathophysiologic and treatment approaches across patients with different problems related to CKD. The cases and questions will be useful for medical student teaching, residency board review, and clinician teaching or conference preparation. Includes case studies and questions which can be used as a teaching tool for medical students and residentProvides coverage of classification and measurement, epidemiology, pathophysiology, complications of CKD, fluid/electrolyte disorders in CKD, CKD and systemic illnesses, clinical considerations, therapeutic considerations, and special considerations INDICE: 1.
