- Summary:
- "Issues in Kidney Disease-Acute Kidney Injury is a collection of nineteen independent chapters written by internationally renowned authors, covering a wide range of topics, including the basic concepts and management of acute kidney injury (AKI), contrast induced nephropathy, acute tubular necrosis, interstitial nephritis, glomerulonephritis, obstructive uropathy, COVID-19, cardiorenal and hepatorenal syndrome. This book also addresses kidney injury in specialized populations like pregnant patients and patients with kidney transplant. A whole chapter is also dedicated to imaging in patients with kidney injury. This book will appeal to renal fellows, nephrologists, and practicing physicians involved in the care of AKI patients in critical care units and medical floors, including all those interested in the advances and innovations undergoing in this field. It brings timely and updated reviews and addresses trends, challenges, and controversies of kidney injury"-- Provided by publisher.
