The Oxford Handbook of Dialysis, now in its fourth edition, serves as a comprehensive resource for healthcare professionals involved in the care of dialysis patients. It provides practical guidance on managing patients with end-stage kidney disease and its associated complications. This handbook covers a spectrum of dialysis aspects, ranging from hemodialysis techniques and hemodiafiltration to the medical, nursing, and psychosocial considerations in managing patients with end-stage kidney failure. It addresses renal transplantation, plasma exchange, palliative care, and drug dosing, including end-of-life care and complications arising from chronic kidney disease.
The handbook emphasizes practical management strategies presented in a compact and accessible format. It is designed for a multidisciplinary audience, including nephrologists, dieticians, pharmacists, nurses, and surgeons. Specific chapters are dedicated to nursing care for patients undergoing hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, along with detailed sections on nutrition and drug prescribing. The fourth edition incorporates new sections on renal replacement therapies in acute kidney injury, home dialysis, novel peritoneal dialysis fluids, and updated information on nocturnal dialysis, dialysis monitoring, encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis, and sleep disorders.
