Providing an in-depth discussion of fluid and electrolyte balance and imbalance, this work progresses from fundamental concepts, pathophysiology and assessment of fluid and electrolyte balance, to coverage of major clinical problems. Information on the following subjects is provided: ambulatory surgical patients; trauma; hypovolemic shock; total parenteral nutrition; and syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). Critical thinking questions in redesigned case studies aim to enhance decision-making skills whilst a separate chapter on infants and children, and the elderly, offers thorough across-the-lifespan coverage.
