The field of interventional nephrology needs to be viewed as a new
road towards improving the diagnostic methods and the dialysis
access care provided to chronic kidney disease patients across the
world. The above issues remain a weak link in the training of young
nephrologists and a major hurdle both in the planning and
maintenance phase of renal replacement therapy, as well as in the
accuracy and safety of diagnosing renal impairment causation.
Traditionally, the procedural aspect of care has been left in many
cases to surgeons and/or radiologists. The above facts lead in many
cases to patient inconvenience and high health care cost. The aim
of this book is not only learning the necessary skills to perform
renal medical procedures, but for nephrologists to assume
leadership roles in coordinating a team to provide the best
possible care. Mostly, this book is focused on details and
"secrets" that can make the results better than we expect.
Introducing renal physicians to the insertion of tunneled lines,
medical insertion of peritoneal catheters and kidney biopsies
(native and transplant) from the nephrologist's view is a great
need in renal society. The primary focus of this book is to
generate interest and awareness of the scope of interventional
nephrology. The nephrology community across the world needs to
evaluate the available resources to discuss the role of various
team members and strive to improve patient care. Editors' and
authors experiences are exposed in the book, which tends to help
the growth and progress of this subspecialty. The trend is also
seen as a recruiting tool to train the nephrology workforce in the
future.
