For the last two decades, the topic of chronic renal failure has
been dominated by discussions on dialysis and transplantation. As
facilities for treating patients with end-stage renal failure have
become more readily available, at least in Europe and North
America, attention has once again been drawn to conservative
measures which may improve both the overall prognosis and the
quality of life of patients with renal impairment. Although severe
renal failure may be progressive and many patients will ultimately
require some form of renal replacement therapy, it is now widely
appreciated that distressing symptoms can often be ameliorated by
judicious medical treatment. Children as well as, and perhaps to a
greater extent than, adults may benefit from such therapy. This
volume examines relevant trends in the conservative man agement of
both adults and children with chronic renal failure. Each chapter
has been written by recognized experts and provides infor mation of
clinical relevance for the average clinician. As the overall
prognosis for patients with end-stage renal failure improves it is
clear the management of patients with relatively stable chronic
renal failure is an important topic not only for nephrologists but
for all practising clinicians."
