Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant global public health concern, impacting nearly one in seven adults in the United States alone. This multifaceted disease encompasses chronic illnesses at various levels, leading to a progressive condition characterized by high rates of co-morbidity. This comprehensive review, written by experts in the field, serves as a valuable resource for primary care providers and non-nephrology clinicians who treat patients with CKD. Comprising 24 chapters, the book provides a state-of-the-art exploration of this field. The first two chapters offer an introduction to CKD, encompassing the anatomy and physiology of the kidney, as well as its definition and epidemiology. The subsequent three chapters delve into the detection, prevention, and progression of the disease. The following six chapters explore the relationship between CKD and other conditions, including common co-morbidities such as diabetes and hypertension. The subsequent chapters focus on CKD-associated complications, as well as its impact on special populations such as the elderly and minorities. Additionally, the book addresses dietary restrictions and drug dosing in CKD patients. The concluding chapters discuss the management of advanced CKD, including renal replacement therapy and preemptive organ transplantation as alternatives to dialysis. Approach to Chronic Kidney Disease is a comprehensive guide for clinicians, particularly primary care providers, including residents and fellows in training, who care for patients with CKD. It is also a valuable tool for researchers engaged in this challenging field.
