Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the psychosocial impacts of the kidney disease process and treatments on pediatric patients, including child development, schooling, coping, and resilience. Chronic illnesses and invasive treatments can be particularly impactful on children's development and identity formation, and a multidisciplinary treatment model that takes psychosocial considerations into account is imperative for patients' overall wellbeing. This book covers both specific disease-related concerns, including dialysis, transplantation, and nutrition, and broader issues such as collaborating with schools, supporting families, advocacy, and the transition to adult healthcare.

Written by experts in a rapidly developing area, this book is an excellent resource for all people impacted by and involved in caring for pediatric kidney diseases including practicing nephrologists and nephrologists in training, as well as psychosocial providers serving nephrology patients, and even families and patients themselves.
