Abstract

Hemodiafiltration (HDF) is an advanced renal replacement therapy that can reduce morbidity and mortality and improve the quality of life of dialysis patients. This special edition of the Advances in Hemodiafiltration book is empowered with several well-established and experienced authors, who have written clear and informative chapters. The book covers basic physiologic principles of HDF and its requirements, implementation, and achievement of best possible clinical outcomes and includes results of published randomized controlled clinical trials. Advances in Hemodiafiltration can be considered as a practical guide to daily practice and a reference for medical and nursing staff involved in taking care of dialysis patients.

Abstract

This book provides a complete description of online hemodiafiltration (HDF) in five sections. Sections cover topics such as technical and essential aspects of convective techniques, equipment, the effects of HDF treatment on various biomarkers, results of recent large randomized control trials and meta-analyses on HDF treatment, as well as various practical issues. Online HDF has become an established treatment nowadays, and is supported by a vast amount of comprehensive information on a diversity of clinical and scientific aspects. This book collects and structure this information in a convenient practical guide for professionals interested in and/or working with patients with end stage kidney disease.  Hemodiafiltration - A Practical Guide is of great and global relevance for health regulatory authorities and insurance companies, dialysis industries and last but not least for the millions of  patients for whom dialysis therapy is a life-saving treatment.

Abstract

Praise for Hemo-Dynamics: “This book provides an elegant and intuitive derivation of the fundamental mathematics underlying fluid flow, and then applies these in a straightforward way to pulsatile blood flow in all its complexity. One of the triumphs of the book is that Zamir succeeds in making essential concepts such as the Navier-Stokes equations completely accessible to any reader with a knowledge of basic calculus. The author succeeds in conveying both the beauty of his subject matter, and his passion for the elegance and intricacies of fluid flow more generally.” Lindi Wahl, PhD, Professor of Applied Mathematics, The University of Western Ontario “Incredible, the figures alone are to die for… At first glance “Hemo-Dynamics” seems like a deep engineering and modeling dive into the mechanical properties of the cardiovascular system, blood, and how they interact to generate flow and pressure. However, the text is laid out in a stepwise manner and I was especially impressed in the way that the key conceptual figures illustrate the essential concepts. In keeping with the philosophical underpinnings of engineering, Professor Zamir has also constructed his book so that the format, text, equations and the figures are self-reinforcing. This is a book that will be of great use to those who seek to understand the cardiovascular system from a mechanical and modeling perspective.” Michael J. Joyner, MD, Professor of Anesthesiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN.
