The book surveys common complications in the procedure of dialysis, including those due to inherent complexities related to advanced kidney disease and the disorders that cause it. The chapters review the pathophysiology or mechanisms of each complication, how it can be recognized and managed, and more importantly how it can be prevented. The text also addresses whether the complication is due to conditions associated with kidney disease, such as frailty and muscle weakness, or whether the complication occurs as the consequence of treatment.

The complications addressed include infections, AV access and catheter issues, problems in procedure, coagulation-related disorders, and falls, among others. Written by experienced dialysis experts, this book is a resource and learning tool for anyone involved in caring for patients undergoing renal replacement therapy.
