The most common reason for a renal consult in a hospitalized patient is acute renal failure (ARF). This new companion book to Brenner and Rector's The Kidney provides the reader with the complete information necessary to understand, diagnose, and treat this serious and challenging condition. The first part of the book describes recent progress in the understanding of the pathophysiology of ARF, explaining the tremendous strides in the molecular and cellular aspects of cell injury and recovery. The remainder (and majority) of the text emphasizes the clinical spectrum and management of the different disease processes causing ARF. In these chapters, ARF is discussed in terms of its many associated disease processes such as pigment nephropathy, burns, infectious disease, and gastrointestinal and liver disease. This format allows for rapid referral and an in-depth understanding of all clinical aspects of ARF, including its most important aspect of management: to prevent the disease from becoming chronic, ultimately leading to dialysis and then transplantation. Provides the reader with a single-volume, authoritative, clinically oriented resource on ARF. Offers an in-depth analysis of recent advances in scientific and clinical aspects of acute renal failure (ARF). Covers the most recent advances in therapy, and emphasizes diagnosis, management, and prognosis. Integrates basic science with clinical diagnosis and treatment throughout. Describes in detail the mechanisms underlying the development of ARF and highlights the factors which promote recovery. Emphasizes the clinical impact of ARF according to the areas where it is most likely to be seen.
