Welcome to the fourth, completely updated, edition of the Oxford Handbook of Dialysis, which we hope you will find useful. It has been 7 years since the last edition, and amazingly 15 years since the first edition, and in that time there have been many developments in dialysis and in treating patients with end-stage kidney disease. We now have much better evidence for various interventions (although renal medicine remains relatively poorer at generating high-quality evidence than other areas of medicine), and for the first time now some good trial data to support choices in treating patients, ranging from managing their anaemia or bone disease through to haemodialysis strategies. We have therefore updated every section of the book which now covers all haemodialysis techniques, haemodiafiltration, nocturnal and home dialysis, frequent dialysis, peritoneal dialysis in all its forms, plasma exchange, the medical, nursing, and psychosocial aspects of managing patients with end-stage kidney disease, nutrition, the acute management of renal transplantation particularly with reference to dialysis patients, palliative and end-of-life care in renal disease and use of analgesics, a completely new section on renal replacement therapy in acute kidney injury, updated drug dosing guidelines including new drugs, and summaries of the most recent guidelines from Europe (European Best Practice Guidelines), the UK Renal Association, the USA (KDOQI and KDIGO) and Australasia. Bone disease, anaemia, cardiovascular disease, infections, pain, and the widespread complications of chronic kidney disease are all discussed, with practical guidance and management, presented in a compact and easy-to-use format. We have added new sections on home haemodialysis, frequent haemodialysis, new intradialytic monitoring techniques, new peritoneal dialysis fluids, encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis, sleep disorders, management of patients with stroke, care of dying patients with kidney disease or on dialysis, and a new section on acute kidney injury. New drugs such as the new epoetins and phosphate binders are included. We have ensured that the sections on nursing and nutrition for dialysis patients have been written by the appropriate experts, experienced renal nurses and dieticians respectively, and both completely refreshed and updated. We hope we ensured the book remains easy to use and read, which has always been one of our primary aims, but also comprehensive, focussed, and practical, and clearly aimed at the whole multiprofessional team of colleagues looking after patients on dialysis. We hope this book will have a home in every renal unit, dialysis centre, intensive care unit, renal ward, and be close to hand for every nephrologist, intensivist, renal trainee, renal nurse, dietician, technician, and pharmacist, and that it helps improve the care of patients with kidney disease.
