Handbook of Peritoneal Dialysis Paperback – February 4, 2011

ALL dialysis nurses should own this book and read it. Dr Guest is also a great speaker and if you have the chance to meet him or go to a BAXTER lecture by him, GO!Lots of details to help nurses with peritoneal patient care. ISPD guidelines followed.

Best PD book out there. The history section as well as all the clinical chapers are just awesome...If you do PD or interested pick it up. Great for residents rotating on nephrology (maybe to borrow from a fellow), fellows, and staff.

I was able to review only portions of the handbook, but what I read was great.The format is reader friendly and the dialog is clear and concise. The author presents information in a manner that is understandable and easy to comprehend. I am new to PD, and would recommend this book not only to the novice, but the expert.J. Hall

Excellent book to have on hand for daily reference as a peritoneal nurse! I carry it with me at all times and use it as a reference when MD's ask for guidlines or up to date info as well as the ispd guidelines!

Take long time to reach ,unable to track it.Only printed book ,non color.Not to my expectation , it may be good for fundamental starter

I am a Nephrology fellow and was searching for the best book on PD. I have not found anything better than this one. The language is very simple and it is fun to read. I finally understood all the calculations involved.

Very informative book for me work. I have really enjoyed reading and learning more about this subject. I bought it for the library of our work

This book is an excellent resource for RNs who are employed in the nephrology speciality in medicine.

For those who are new to peritoneal dialysis, this is the book for you. It is a good book for introducing the concepts of PD.
