Text with CD-ROM Denis F. Geary, Franz Schaefer
* Just the right amount of "need-to-know" basic science coupled with practical clinical guidance for every disorder helps you make efficient, informed decisions. * The book provides a much needed update on the genetic origins of pediatric kidney disorders. * Chapters about glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and tubular disorders provide an orientation in the pathophysiology, differential diagnosis, and treatment of these heterogeneous disease entities. * Disease specific chapters include diagnostic work-up, laboratory evaluation, and management of disorders and complications, making this necessary information readily accessible. * The prevention and management of pediatric chronic renal failure and its complications are comprehensively covered in many detailed chapters. * Four chapters devoted to childhood hypertension offer you insights into an increasingly prevalent condition among pediatric patients so you can treat them more effectively. |
