This reference gives information on classification, pathophysiology, emerging diagnostic tools, and therapies for severe fluid-related disorders. It is intended for physicians and other professionals involved in the care of patients with combined heart and kidney disorders, and can also be used as a reference textbook by medical students, residents, and fellows dealing with fluid overloaded and olilguric patients. Conditions leading to fluid overload are described, and new definitions of heart failure, kidney injury, and cardiorenal syndromes are presented to facilitate understanding of the link between the heart and the kidney. Recent advances in diagnosis are described, including the use of biomarkers in evaluation of patients with heart failure, and bioelectric impedance measurement for fluid status assessment. Various types of cardiorenal syndromes are discussed in detail, with information given on diuretic therapy, pharmacological therapy, and extracorporeal fluid removal and filtration. Ronco is affiliated with the International Renal Research Institute, Italy. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
