Synopsis

Peritoneal dialysis is one of the most important home-based renal replacement therapies in modern nephrology—but successful PD care requires far more than simply knowing how exchanges work.

Peritoneal Dialysis Clinical Guide is a clear, practical, evidence-based resource designed for nephrology professionals, dialysis nurses, renal fellows, physician assistants, medical students, and healthcare teams involved in peritoneal dialysis care.

Written with a strong clinical focus, this guide explains the essential principles of peritoneal dialysis from foundation to advanced practice in a way that is structured, readable, and immediately useful in real-world patient care.

Inside this book, you will learn:

• The science and physiology behind peritoneal dialysis

• Patient selection and PD modality decision-making

• CAPD, APD, CCPD, NIPD, and special PD approaches

• PD catheter placement, exit-site care, and access management

• Prescription design, fill volumes, dwell times, and adequacy assessment

• Volume management, fluid balance, nutrition, and residual kidney function

• Prevention, recognition, and management principles for peritonitis

• Exit-site infections, tunnel infections, and mechanical complications

• Metabolic, cardiovascular, and systemic issues in long-term PD care

• PD care in elderly patients, diabetes, urgent-start dialysis, AKI, and pediatric settings

• Troubleshooting common PD problems in clinical practice

• Quality improvement, patient safety, and case-based clinical decision-making

• Emerging innovations and the future of peritoneal dialysis

This book combines clinical reasoning, practical guidance, complication awareness, and patient-centered care principles to help healthcare professionals better understand the challenges and day-to-day realities of peritoneal dialysis management.

Whether you are learning PD for the first time or strengthening your clinical practice, Peritoneal Dialysis Clinical Guide provides a practical and professionally structured reference for safer, more informed peritoneal dialysis care.
