This updated edition provides a clear and concise understanding of the fundamentals of fluid, electrolyte and acid-base disorders that are frequently encountered in clinical practice. Each chapter follows a standard format that begins with pertinent basic physiology followed by its clinical disorder. Cases for each fluid, electrolyte and acid-base disorder are discussed, along with board-type questions with explanations to increase clinicians' knowledge. Revised with new developments in the field, this edition's expanded chapters cover useful information left out of other textbooks.
This practical, current, and clinically oriented book is a must-have reference for practicing physicians, students, residents and fellows.
