Synopsis

The fifth volume in the University of Minnesota Guides to Birth and Childhood Disorders is designed to help parents as well as older children and adolescents understand the causes, diagnosis, and treatment of kidney disorders. Like all volumes in the series, A Parent's Guide to Kidney Disorders integrates basic, diagnostic, and therapeutic information, and includes numerous case studies, photographs, and a glossary defining unfamiliar terms. The authors explain the basic anatomical and functional characteristics of the kidney and relate these characteristics to many of the kidney diseases that may occur in childhood. In addition, they offer guidance and advice for parents and patients on coping effectively with the psychological effects of chronic illness on the family, including practical information on agencies providing support services. In clear and approachable language, A Parent's Guide to Kidney Disorders is an invaluable family resource for all those facing the challenge of kidney disease.
