Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) is the standard of care for management of critically ill patients with acute renal failure. Part of the Pittsburgh Critical Care series, Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy provides concise, evidence-based, bedside guidance about this treatment modality, offering quick reference answers to clinicians' questions about treatments and situations encountered in daily practice. Organized into sections on theory, practice, special situations, and organizational issues, this volume provides a complete view of CRRT theory and practice. Tables summarize and highlight key points, and key studies and trials are included in each chapter. The second edition has been updated to include a new chapter on the use of biomarkers to aid in patient selection and timing, extensive revisions on terminology and nomenclature to match current standards, and the most up-to-date information on newly developed CRRT machines.

This translational text offers in-depth reviews of the metabolic and nutritional disorders that are prevalent in patients with renal disease. Chapter topics address the growing epidemic of obesity and metabolic syndrome. Each chapter integrates basic and clinical approaches, from cell biology and genetics to diagnosis, patient management and treatment. Chapters in sections 4-7 include new illustrative case reports, and all chapters emphasize key concepts with chapter-ending summaries. New features also include the latest National Kidney Foundation Clinical Practice Guidelines on Nutrition in Chronic Renal Failure, the most recent scientific discoveries and the latest techniques for assessing nutritional status in renal disease, and literature reviews on patients who receive continuous veno-venous hemofiltration with or without dialysis. Provides a common language for nephrologists, nutritionists, endocrinologists, and other interested physicians to discuss the underlying research and translation of best practices for the nutritional management and prevention of renal disease Saves clinicians and researchers time in quickly accessing the very latest details on nutritional practice as opposed to searching through thousands of journal articles Correct diagnosis (and therefore correct treatment) of renal, metabolic, and nutritional disorders depends on a strong understanding of the molecular basis for the disease - both nephrologists and nutritionists will benefit Nephrologists and nutritionists will gain insight into which treatments, medications, and diets to use based on the history, progression, and genetic make-up of a patient Case Reports will offer an added resource for fellows, nutritionists, and dieticians who need a refresher course

Hypertension remains a leading cause of disability and death worldwide. Self-monitoring of blood pressure by patients at home is currently recommended as a valuable tool for the diagnosis and management of hypertension. Unfortunately, in clinical practice, home blood pressure monitoring is often inadequately implemented, mostly due to the use of inaccurate devices and inappropriate methodologies. Thus, the potential of the method to improve the management of hypertension and cardiovascular disease prevention has not yet been exhausted. This volume presents the available evidence on home blood pressure monitoring, discusses its strengths and limitations, and presents strategies for its optimal implementation in clinical practice. Written by distinguished international experts, it offers a complete source of information and guide for practitioners and researchers dealing with the management of hypertension.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is becoming a global health concern. Uncontrolled hypertension (HTN) and diabetes mellitus (DM) are the leading causes of renal disease, resulting in a delay in proper intervention to prevent chronicity. Therefore, primary care providers (PCPs) need to use systematic evidence based clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) to delay renal progression. For this to occur, education awareness, medical nursing implementation of evidence-based guidelines in caring for patients with CKD is strongly encouraged. Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines provide recommendations for PCPs to use in order to improve patient outcomes to make early referrals to nephrologists. Evidenc-Based Practice Framework: The Evidence-Based Model for Change developed by Rosswurm and Larrabee was chosen to guide the evidence-based practice change project. This framework supported the aim of the scholarly project: to educate PCPs the benefits of improving patient care to delay renal progression using the KDIGO guidelines in order to make early referrals to nephrologists. Methods: A chart audit from patient's medical records was created to assess current referral practice from patients' medical records. Shortly after the chart audit, the PCPs were asked to complete a questionnaire related to the use of CPGs and the use of KDIGO. After the questionnaire was completed, the PCPs were given an educational presentation to review the background of CKD and the benefits of implementing KDIGO guidelines. A second chart audit was conducted to ascertain if practice behaviors changed as noted by early referral ostensibly based on the guidelines. Results: The 19 PCPs in the practice all participated in the project and had varying ways in which they treated patients with CKD. Sixty-nine-percent of the providers were not aware of what or how CPGs guided their practice prior to the project and 31% were aware of both the CPGS and actively used KDIGO when making referrals. The second chart audit noted 90% of referrals made were guided by the KDIGO guidelines as patients were referred appropriate to nephrologists. Conclusion: The incidence of CKD is increasing and it has become a global concern. PCPs need to know their role is critical in the early evaluation and treatment of patients with CKD. More importantly, the use of KDIGO guidelines provides valuable evidence-based information to make early referrals and reduce the incidence and prevalence of the ESRD.

A few years ago, as the editor of Kidney International, I was ap proached by Drs. Cohen, Kassirer, and Harrington who suggested that a new feature should be included in each monthly issue of the journal. They suggested that it should employ a case discussion format such as that used frequently at specialty rounds in teaching hospitals, and that the discussion should place a special emphasis on the relationship between basic science and important problems in clinical nephrology. The summary of an actual patient history would first be presented to exemplify a particular clinical problem, a seasoned person of proven expertise would be invited to deliver a well-documented analysis of the relevant issues, and perhaps most ambitiously of all, a critical audience would be assembled to challenge the principal discussant in an open ended, question-and-answer period. The entire affair would be recorded at the time of the live conference and transcribed subse quently in preparation for publication as a "Nephrology Forum. " I must confess that I was somewhat hesitant at first to endorse their proposal because, at the time, Kidney International had just begun to establish a solid reputation for the publication of high quality, peer reviewed manuscripts dealing with the clinical and laboratory research interests of the international nephrological community.

Examines changes in nephrology as it evolves from a focus on end-stage renal disease (ESRD) to treating earlier stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Once patients reach ESRD, treatments are limited to kidney transplantation and dialysis. However, the progression of earlier stages of CKD can be slowed, halted, or reversed when treated. Clinics are still establishing best-practice models, and reimbursement remains a challenge.

This timely, concise title provides an important update on clinical lipid management. Using information from recent clinical trials and in special populations, the book begins by offering an easy-to-read overview of LDL, HDL, and triglyceride metabolism and the genetics of lipid disorders. The link between inflammation and lipids, and how this relates to atherosclerosis development, is also addressed, as are the measures of subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with abnormal lipid levels. Lipid abnormalities in children, with a particular focus on vulnerable populations (with an emphasis on ethnicity and childhood obesity), are covered. The treatment goals and approaches for managing lipids in the clinic are thoroughly discussed, emphasizing the important role of statin use and addressing controversies of lipid management in special populations such as heart failure, end stage kidney disease and fatty liver disease. Of special note, an important update on how new HIV medications impact lipid levels is provided. In all, Lipid Management: From Basics to Clinic, is an invaluable, handy resource for understanding changes in lipids in different populations and for sharpening the clinical approach to managing complicated lipid cases.
