Validity of body impedance analysis for evaluating body composition in patients undergoing long-term hemodialysis
[Purpose] This study assessed changes in body composition before and after dialysis in chronic hemodialysis patients and determined the relationships between various body composition parameters and blood lipid levels in these patients. [Subjects] The cross-sectional study included 19 dialysis outpatients (17 men and 2 women, aged 35-82 years). [Methods] Body mass index, body weight, percent bod...
متن کاملAssessment of hemodialysis adequacy in patients undergoing maintenance maneuver by laboratory tests
Background and Objectives: Hemodialysis (HD) is one of the therapeutic modalities patients. Since inadequate dialysis increases mortality and morbidity of patients, therefore, assessment of dialysis adequacy is clinically important. For this reason, hemodialysis adequacy was determined in patients underg...
متن کاملNutritional Markers and Body Composition in Hemodialysis Patients
The aims of this study were to analyse body composition, to detect the presence of undernutrition, and to establish a relationship between undernutrition and the biological markers routinely used as indicators of nutritional status in hemodialysis (HD) patients (pts). We used a body composition monitor (BCM) that expresses body weight in terms of lean tissue mass (LTM) and fat tissue mass (FTM)...
متن کاملSkin manifestations of patients with chronic renal failure on long-term hemodialysis
Background: There are several reports of different cutaneous manifestations in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) managed by repeated hemodialysis, in the literature. Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of skin manifestations in patients suffering from CRF who are on long-term hemodialysis. Patients and Methods: The skin manifestations of 108 CRF patients who u...
متن کاملGlycated Albumin Predicts Long-term Survival in Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis
BACKGROUND In patients with advanced renal dysfunction undergoing maintenance hemodialysis, glycated albumin (GA) levels may be more representative of blood glucose levels than hemoglobin A1C levels. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive power of GA levels on long-term survival in hemodialysis patients. METHODS A total of 176 patients with a mean age of 68.2 years were enrolle...
