As the number of people aged 65 years and above rises, physicians
are increasingly confronted by elderly patients with impaired renal
function, altered drug metabolism and multiple comorbidities. This
book examines in detail the nature of renal injury in the elderly
and its optimal management. A wide range of key topics are covered,
including end-stage renal disease, diabetic nephropathy, acute
kidney injury, drug metabolism and renal toxicity, dialysis and its
complications and the use of renal transplantation. In addition,
the assessment of glomerular filtration rate in the elderly and the
role of novel renal biomarkers are carefully examined. Quality of
life issues, the significance of other age-related medical problems
and end of life care are also discussed. This book will be of value
not only to nephrologists but also to general practitioners,
medical students, intensivists, cardiologists, pharmacologists and
those working in related specialties.
