Pocket Nephrologist (PocketDoc Series)

Pocket Nephrologist is a pocket-sized guide that contains lists, tables, algorithms, cartoons, and generally accepted guidelines for practitioners who care for patients with renal diseases. Each topic is usually covered on a single page, allowing for rapid acquisition of pertinent data at the point of care. Users will be able to adjust drug-dosing based on eGFR, employ algorithms for the work-up of hematuria, proteinuria, electrolyte disorders, and acid-base disorders. You will also be able to quickly review the etiology of acute kidney injury and major electrolyte disorders. Additionally, photomicrographs and treatment guidelines of common glomerular diseases are included (FSGS, MGN, lupus nephritis, diabetic nephropathy, minimal change nephropathy, RPGN, and AAV). The guide succinctly reviews renal replacement therapies (hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, peritonitis, and transplantation). Read more
