Integrating BIA and eGFR for Nutritional Status in Hemodialysis Patients

NCT06873880 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 30

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study looks at how measurements of body composition from Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) and estimates of kidney function (eGFR) can be applied together to better assess the health of people on hemodialysis. Many dialysis patients struggle with malnutrition, muscle loss, and fluid imbalances, but current assessment methods rely on unsophisticated tests and observations. By combining BIA and eGFR, this study aims to provide a more accurate and non-invasive way to monitor nutrition and overall health, which could lead to better treatment decisions and improved patient outcomes.
