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 کاملVolume Control by Using the Body Composition Monitor in a Puerperal Patient on Hemodialysis
Accurate measurement of the volume status in hemodialysis patients is important as it can affect mortality. However, no studies have been conducted regarding volume management in cases where a sudden change of body fluid occurs, such as during puerperium in hemodialysis patients. This report presents a case in which the patient was monitored for her body composition and her volume status was co...
متن کاملBCM--body composition monitor: a new tool for the assessment of volume-dependent hypertension in patients on maintenance haemodialysis.
Hypertension is a common finding in end-stage renal disease patients with the prevalence between 20 to 85%. Although the etiology of arterial hypertension (AH) in this patient group is multifactorial, sodium and volume excess leading to extracellular volume overload are one of the most important and potentially adjustable causes. Control of volume status can either normalize the blood pressure ...
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 کاملEffects of body size and body composition on survival in hemodialysis patients.
It is unclear whether increased muscle mass or body fat confer the survival advantage in hemodialysis patients with high body-mass index (BMI). Twenty-four-hour urinary creatinine (UCr) excretion was used as a measure of muscle mass. The outcomes of hemodialysis patients with high BMI and normal or high muscle mass (inferred low body fat) and high BMI and low muscle mass (inferred high body fat...
