Undoubtedly one of the best books on Dialysis related complications, written by leading authorities on the subject. The content is appropriately divided into three sections;the very first one dealing with proceedure related complications, the second one with patient-related complications and the third one with special situations which contains a chapter on RRT in the intensive care units.Critical care Nephrology is a relatively new area in Nephrology and there are very few books that have devoted an entire chapter to this special area in Nephrology.This section also contains chapters on approach to dialysis in other countries and outcomes. This is a very useful book for all Nephrology Trainees, Internists and Nephrologists and is worth the money spent.
