Students will assist in the evaluation and management of patients with varying types of kidney diseases. This will include patients with fluid and electrolyte problems, glomerulonephritis, acute and chronic renal failure, as well as end-stage-renal-failure patients who are on dialysis therapy and those who have received a renal transplant. The elective provides in-patients, out-patients and ICU experience. Those interested may also become involved in quality improvement or research activities related to renal disease, dialysis or transplantation.
