While HHD has been associated with multiple benefits,2–7 it is not without complications. Nephrologists must be knowledgeable about these complications as HHD use increases in the United States. In this chapter, we discuss technical, medical, and psychosocial complications associated with HHD and their diagnosis, management, and prevention.
