Dietary Protein Requirements in Hemodialysis Patients

NCT02194114 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 13

Last updated 2014-07-18

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to assess dietary protein requirements in clinically stable maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. It is hypothesized that the average dietary protein intake (DPI) that will maintain nitrogen balance is 1.00 g protein/kg/day, but that a safe intake that maintains balance in almost all MHD patients is about 1.25g protein/kg/day.

Conditions

  • Chronic Renal Failure
  • End-Stage Renal Disease

Protein Diet

Protein diets fed for 17-19 days to each patient in random order: 0.6 g protein/kg/day, 0.8 g protein/kg/day, 1.0 g protein/kg/day, 1.15 g protein/kg/day, 1.3 g protein/kg/day.
