Limitations in anthropometric calculations of total body water in patients on peritoneal dialysis.
Having an accurate estimation of total body water (TBW) is essential for the evaluation of dialysis efficacy in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. In this study, TBW volumes were measured by tritium dilution (TBW(THO)) in 165 PD patients and compared with TBW calculations according to the Watson formulas. An alternative anthropometric formula based on the present PD population was also develope...
متن کاملTotal body water and body composition in chronic peritoneal dialysis patients.
In this investigation, total body water (TBW) in ten chronic peritoneal dialysis patients was studied by deuterium (TBW-2H), skinfold thickness (TBW-ST), Watson formula (TBW-WA), 58% of body weight (TBW-58%), and bioelectrical impedance (TBW-BIA), and these results were compared with the reference oxygen18 (TBW-18O) method. We also analyzed the fat-free mass (FFM) by skinfold thickness (FFM-ST)...
متن کاملComparison of anthropometric equations for estimation of total body water in peritoneal dialysis patients.
BACKGROUND Several formulae exist for estimating total body water (TBW). We aimed to assess their validity in peritoneal dialysis patients by comparison with TBW estimated by deuterium oxide dilution (TBW(D)). METHODS We compared the equations of Chertow (TBW(Cher)), Chumlea (TBW(Chum)), Hume and Weyers (TBW(HW)), Johansson (TBW(J)), Lee (TBW(L)), Watson (TBW(W)) and TBW as 58% of body weight...
متن کاملValidation of estimates of total body water in pediatric dialysis patients by deuterium dilution.
BACKGROUND Current K-DOQI recommendations call for an assessment of dialysis adequacy that depends critically on an estimate of total body water (TBW). Such estimates are problematic in children since the range of patient size is large, and often formulas derived in normals are not validated in end-stage renal disease. Gold standard methods of TBW measurement, such as deuterium dilution ((2)H(2...
متن کاملAssessment of total body water and lean body mass from anthropometry, Watson formula, creatinine kinetics, and body electrical impedance compared with antipyrine kinetics in peritoneal dialysis patients.
BACKGROUND Indirect methods such as anthropometry (A), Watson formula (W), creatinine kinetics (CK), and body electrical impedance (BEI) are increasingly applied to determine total body water (TBW) and lean body mass (LBM) in dialysis patients. These methods share the disadvantage that they have been validated for healthy men only. We studied which of these four commonly applied methods can bes...
