Interdialytic creatinine change versus predialysis creatinine as indicators of nutritional status in maintenance hemodialysis.
BACKGROUND Protein-energy wasting is common in patients on maintenance hemodialysis and is strongly associated with poor quality of life and mortality. However, clinical assessment of protein-energy wasting remains difficult. Predialysis creatinine levels are associated with mortality risk but may be influenced by both muscle mass and dialysis dose. This might be overcome by examining the rate ...
متن کاملPre-dialysis creatinine and interdialytic change in creatinine as nutritional markers in haemodialysis patients.
Sir, We read with great interest the recent article by Walther et al. [1], which correlated pre-dialysis creatinine levels and interdialytic creatinine change with nutritional status and mortality in haemodialysis patients. The interdialytic change in creatinine is a surrogate of the creatinine generation occurring within the period that may be quantified more precisely by the creatinine index ...
متن کاملNutritional status and interdialytic weight gain of chronic hemodialysis patients.
INTRODUCTION The nutritional status (NS) of patients on hemodialysis (HD) is a major concern and challenge. Malnutrition is common in these patients and is related to poorer clinical outcomes. OBJECTIVES To assess the association between the NS and the interdialytic weight gain (IDWG) of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on HD. METHODS Cross-sectional study with 322 patients older ...
متن کاملCreatinine clearance versus serum creatinine as a risk factor in cardiac surgery
BACKGROUND Renal impairment is one of the predictors of mortality in cardiac surgery. Usually a binarized value of serum creatinine is used to assess the renal function in risk models. Creatinine clearance can be easily estimated by the Cockcroft and Gault equation from serum creatinine, gender, age and body weight. In this work we examine whether this estimation of the glomerular filtration ra...
متن کاملEvaluation of the effect of exercise on serum creatinine and urea nitrogen in hemodialysis patients
Introduction. Chronic renal failure is a progressive disease in which kidney function is impaired, so that the body can not metabolize and maintain fluid balance and electrolytes. Therefore, the present study investigated changes in serum creatinine and urea nitrogen in hemodialysis patients in response to exercise. Materials and Methods. The subjects of this study were dialysis patients who we...
