This publication is the third volume in this series, published annually on the occasion of the International Conference on Dialysis organized by the Renal Research Institute, New York. As in the previous editions, various topics related to ESRD are discussed. This latest volume contains, among many others, contributions on various aspects of continuous flow peritoneal dialysis, such as clinical applications or catheter design. Moreover, intravenous catheter for intracorporeal plasma filtration or the prevention of hemodialysis catheter related bloodstream infection are discussed. Further topics include questions of a more technical nature such as the value of computers in hemodialysis or standards for reproducible access flow measurements. Issues such as the impact of the new K/DOQI guidelines and a European perspective on the management of the hemodialysis patient also receive attention. Covering a broad spectrum of topics, this publication is a most helpful educational tool for young physicians, but also serves as a valuable reference work for experienced clinicians providing information on the most recent advances in dialysis technology and epidemiology of renal diseases.
