Overview

A missed electrolyte trend, a delayed dialysis referral, or an unrecognized transplant complication can cost a patient their kidney, or their life. Hospital medicine moves fast, and renal physiology rarely waits for a textbook chapter to be read in full before a decision is needed at the bedside. Most references force you to choose between exhaustive academic nephrology and thin pocket guides that skip the reasoning behind the numbers. Neither helps when a potassium of 6.8 mEq/L needs a plan in the next ten minutes, or when a post-transplant patient's creatinine is quietly climbing and nobody can say why. This 2026 edition Nephrology Diagnostic Manual closes that gap. Across 25 chapters, it walks through the complete diagnostic and management arc of hospital-based nephrology: structured kidney disease workup, timely dialysis initiation, transplant complication recognition, and precise electrolyte and acid-base correction, all built around the reasoning a senior nephrologist actually uses at the bedside. Clinical vignettes with worked diagnostic reasoning, not just answers Comparison and differential tables for fast bedside decisions Clinical pearls flagging the traps that cause real errors 50+ full-color clinical illustrations and diagrams A companion QR-code video course with 100+ real clinical teaching videos Coverage spanning AKI, CKD, glomerular disease, dialysis, transplant, and every major electrolyte and acid-base disorder The QR code inside links to a free companion course of 100+ verified clinical videos, organized to mirror every chapter, so the concepts on the page connect directly to real teaching walkthroughs. Written for hospitalists, internal medicine residents, ICU clinicians, nephrology fellows, and bedside nurses who need to move from lab value to decision without delay. Add this manual to your shelf and turn uncertain renal calls into confident ones.
