Abstract
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a genetic disease characterized by skin fragility presenting with blistering and skin erosions. Recurrent skin infections are noted to be associated with the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy. End stage kidney disease (ESKD) is a rare complication in patients with EB (Ducret F., et al., Nephrol Ther, 2008). Kidney replacement therapy is very challenging in this vulnerable patient population (Fine JD. et al., Am J Kidney Dis, 2004). Herein, we describe the adaptations to our home nocturnal hemodialysis training and operations to facilitate a patient with EB and ESKD to undergo personalized home nocturnal hemodialysis therapy.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
