Content
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is rapidly becoming a global healthcare problem, with an estimated 10% of the general population affected. As a result, it is becoming increasingly important that primary care physicians and general physicians as well as aspiring nephrologists, have a firm understanding of CKD as well as access to the key information. Practical and highly-accessible, this book provides a comprehensive guide to the understanding and management of patients with CKD. It offers both primary care physicians and non-nephrology specialists an introduction to and insights into the disease. The emphasis is on practical guidance and a focused approach to a number of key topics in the field including epidemiology, diagnosis and management, and the impact of CKD on chronic, non-communicable disease. This is a unique contribution by internationally-renowned experts in the CKD field to update primary care physicians and non-specialists on major issues in this growing global healthcare problem. A comprehensive and highly-practical guide to the understanding and management of patients with chronic kidney disease Contains bullet points, text boxes and numerous tables and diagrams to show information in an easily-accessible style Includes algorithms to clearly display practical management guidelines Written by international experts in the field Evidence-based and linked closely to recent guidelines prepared by the Royal College of Physicians Edited by Meguid El Nahas , Professor of Nephrology, Sheffield Kidney Institute, Sheffield, UK, and Adeera Levin , Professor of Medicine, University of British Columbia, and Consultant Nephrologist, Providence Health Care/ St Paul's Hospital, Canada CONTENTS 1: Practical approaches to the diagnosis and management of common nephrological problems 2: CKD: The scope of the global problem 3: CKD classification, risk factors, and natural history 4: Recommendations for screening and detection of CKD 5: CKD and cardiovascular disease (CVD) 6: CKD and infectious disease 7: Unique aspects of CKD in the developing countries 8: Management of CKD: controlling hypertension and reducing proteinuria 9: Clinical strategies for the management of CKD complications: perspectives for primary care 10: Management of dialysis and transplantation patients: perspectives for primary care Contributors: Dr Aimun Ahmed, Specialist Registrar in Nephrology, Sheffield Kidney Institute, Sheffield, UK Marcellus Assiago, Nephrology Fellow, Tufts Medical Center, Boston, USA Robert C.
