The Association Between Arterial Stiffness and Assessment of Hydration State in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

NCT01659333 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 60

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Dry weight (DW) assessment is essential for the efficient treatment of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients but so far objective methods for DW assessment have not been established for daily clinical practice. Our aim was to evaluate hydration state in PD patients by using a body composition monitor (BCM) and calf bioimpedance (c-BI) and N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels and to compare both methods with arterial stiffness.
