For more than a generation haemodialysis has been the principal
method of treating patients with both acute and chronic renal
failure. Initially, developments and improvements in the system
were highly technical and relevant to only a relatively small
number of specialists in nephrology. More recently, as advances in
therapy have dem onstrated the value of haemoperfusion for certain
types of poisoning, the basic principles ofhaemodialysis have been
perceived as important in many areas of clinical practice. In this
volume, the potential advantages of bicarbonate haemo dialysis are
objectively assessed, the technical and clinical aspects of both
haemofiltration and haemoperfusion discussed and the con tinuing
problems associated with such extracorporeal circuits analysed. All
the chapters have been written by recognized experts in their
field. The increasing availability of highly technical facilities
for appropriately selected patients should ensure that the
information contained in the book is relevant not only to
nephrologists but to all practising clinicians."
