Welcome to ISHD
3rd Congress of International Society for Hemodialysis 2010
World Conference on Portable, Wearable, and Miniaturized Dialysis Systems: Sep. 30–Oct. 2, 2010
The Department of Nephrology, Dialysis, and Renal Transplantation at the International Renal Research Institute presents this technical and clinical forum dedicated to current technology and innovations in the fields of:
- Wearable artificial kidney
- Microelectronics applied to dialysis
- Portable systems for hemo and peritoneal dialysis
- Wearable ultrafiltration systems
- Microdialysis
- Applied monitoring and telecontrol systems for dialysis
- Miniaturized equipment
- Nanotechnology applied to renal replacement therapies
- Hybrid systems and stem cell applications
- Sorbents and fluid regeneration systems
This will be a 2-day meeting including lectures, panel discussions and free comunications/poster sessions with the intent of developing a network of knowledge and a series of scientific and industrial interactions designed to move forward in the field of artificial kidney and related techniques and to plant the seeds for a new generation of devices (quantum leap). The forum is open to physicians, engineers, technicians, and members of the industry involved in concievement, development, production and testing of miniaturized devices for dialysis and their components, with a special call to companies interested in the field to exhibit and present. For more information, download this brochure or contact Anna Saccardo and Marta Scabardi.
Early View for Hemodialysis International
Hemodialysis International is now part of the Wiley InterScience Early View service. Click here to view all the articles currently available. Articles are published online, in advance of their appearance in a print issue. These articles are fully peer reviewed, edited, and complete—they only lack page numbers and volume/issue details—and are considered fully published from the date they first appear online. This date is shown within the published article online. Because Early View articles are considered fully complete, please bear in mind that changes cannot be made to an article after the online publication date even if it is still yet to appear in print. The articles are available as full text HTML or PDF and can be cited as references by using their Digital Object Identifier (DOI) numbers. (For more information on DOIs, please see http://www.doi.org/faq.html.) On print publication, the article will be removed from the Early View area and will appear instead in the relevant online issue, complete with page numbers and volume/issue details. No other changes will be made. The implementation of Early View for the Hemodialysis International represents our commitment to get manuscripts available to view to the academic community as quickly as possible, reducing time to publication considerably without sacrificing quality or completeness.
