Handbook in Critical Care Nephrology: A Bedside Guide for Intensivists, Nephrologists and Critical Care Residents | Practical CRRT, AKI and Renal Dysfunction Management with Case-Based Chapters

Handbook in Critical Care Nephrology: A Bedside Guide is a practical, case-based reference for managing renal dysfunction in critically ill patients, built on the principles of "Stick to Basics" and "Common Things are Common." Across 30 chapters contributed by critical care and nephrology specialists, it moves from the fundamentals of renal illness in critical care through advanced continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) practice. Coverage runs from recognizing and monitoring acute kidney injury (AKI) - including AKI in sepsis, traumatic brain injury and pregnancy, cardiorenal and renocardiac syndrome, hepatorenal syndrome, and bedside biomarkers - through renal replacement therapy in the ICU, with five dedicated chapters on CRRT alone: machine and fluids, dose and prescription, complications, troubleshooting, and anticoagulation. Further chapters address drug dosing (especially antibiotics) in AKI and CKD, nutrition in renal dysfunction, and CRRT use beyond renal failure. Each chapter opens with case-based clinical scenarios and is written in simple, practical language intended for use directly at the bedside, with current updates and evidence-based practices feasible in resource-limited ICU set-ups. Who This Book Is For: Critical Care Fellows and Residents: a structured, case-based way to learn renal-dysfunction management during ICU rotations. Intensivists: a bedside-ready reference for AKI recognition, CRRT prescription, and renal drug dosing in day-to-day ICU practice. Nephrologists: dedicated coverage of the ICU-specific aspects of renal disease - cardiorenal/hepatorenal syndromes, CRRT machine operation and troubleshooting - alongside critical care colleagues. General Medical Personnel in Smaller and Peripheral Centers: written explicitly for settings without a resident intensivist, per the book's own stated aim of resource-limited applicability. Why This Book Helps: Keeps decisions simple under pressure: built on "Stick to Basics" and "Common Things are Common," with practical points for managing renal dysfunction in real time. Structures learning around real scenarios: every chapter opens with case-based clinical scenarios rather than pure theory. Covers CRRT end-to-end: five dedicated chapters take CRRT from machine and fluid selection through dosing, complications, troubleshooting and anticoagulation. Addresses resource-limited practice directly: current updates and evidence-based practices are framed specifically for feasibility in resource-limited ICU set-ups. Simplifies drug and nutrition decisions: dedicated guidance on antibiotic dosing in AKI/CKD and nutrition in renal dysfunction. Key Features: 30 chapters covering critical care nephrology from renal illness recognition through advanced CRRT practice. Five dedicated chapters on continuous renal replacement therapy alone: machine and fluids, dose and prescription, complications, troubleshooting, and anticoagulation. Case-based clinical scenarios opening every chapter. Dedicated chapters on cardiorenal/renocardiac syndrome, hepatorenal syndrome, and pregnancy-related AKI. Practical drug-dosing guidance for antibiotics in acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease.
