Reviews
“It is designed to introduce hemodiafiltration to healthcare professionals and those involved in the dialysis industry, and to discuss how current dialysis therapies have not provided improved survival benefits to patients. … It is aimed at healthcare professionals, regulating bodies, the dialysis industry, patients, and the insurance industry. … This book is very important to modern day nephrology. … an excellent introduction to the modality, its potential future use in treating the dialysis population, and potential for improved patient survival.” (Juan-Carlos Aycnena, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2016)
