Overview

Nephrology fellows and dialysis nurses face a demanding reality: renal replacement therapy blends physics, physiology, and bedside judgment, and gaps in any one area put patients at risk. This 2026 edition delivers a complete, clinically grounded walkthrough of hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, from nephron physiology through vascular access, prescription writing, acute complications, CRRT in the ICU, mineral bone disorder, anemia management, nutrition, and special populations. Without a structured reference, trainees piece together fragments from rounds, review articles, and outdated slide decks, missing the connective tissue between physiology and prescription. Foundations of Dialysis closes that gap with 25 chapters of integrated, case-anchored teaching. Clinical pearls and patient vignettes in every chapter Decision frameworks for real bedside dilemmas Two custom-illustrated figures per chapter clarifying anatomy and technique Act now to build the confident, integrated understanding your patients deserve. A companion video course, accessed by scanning the QR code included at the end of this book, extends every chapter with curated lecture content from leading nephrology educators. Written by a practicing nephrologist for fellows and nurses who want to master dialysis care, not just memorize it.
