Abstract
Background and aims
Intradialytic eating practices is a subject of debate among hemodialysis patients and is associated with a variety of clinical implications. This study aimed to investigate eating practices during hemodialysis and their influence on health outcome, including various symptoms experienced during dialysis, intradialytic hypotension, dialysis adequacy, and malnutrition.
Methods
A cross-sectional study was conducted on hemodialysis patients. A structured questionnaire was used to collect information related to sociodemographic, medical history, lifestyle, dialysis, and eating practices. The occurrence of intradialytic hypotension was determined according to the patients' blood pressure measured at the beginning and end of the session, and dialysis adequacy was determined based on the ultrafiltration rate of the patients. Malnutrition was evaluated using renal inpatient screening tool (renal iNUT), and biochemical data was recruited from the patient's hospital records.
Results
A total of 260 hemodialysis patients participated in this study. The mean age was 51.29 ± 15.92, and half of the participants were females. The findings showed no significant association between intradialytic eating practices and symptoms developed during dialysis session, intradialytic hypotension, or malnutrition (p > 0.05). According to Chi-square test, a statistically significant association was found between eating practices and dialysis adequacy (p = 0.037), hemoglobin level (p < 0.001), and phosphorous level (p = 0.003).
Conclusion
Eating practices were not associated with symptoms that developed during dialysis sessions, intradialytic hypotension, or malnutrition, according to our findings. However, findings reveal that it is possible that eating practices may affect the adequacy of dialysis.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Nutrition ESPEN is an electronic-only journal and is an official publication of the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN). Nutrition and nutritional care have gained wide clinical and scientific interest during the past decades. The increasing knowledge of metabolic disturbances and nutritional assessment in chronic and acute diseases has stimulated rapid advances in design, development and clinical application of nutritional support. The aims of ESPEN are to encourage the rapid diffusion of knowledge and its application in the field of clinical nutrition and metabolism. Published bimonthly, Clinical Nutrition ESPEN focuses on publishing articles on the relationship between nutrition and disease in the setting of basic science and clinical practice. Clinical Nutrition ESPEN is available to all members of ESPEN and to all subscribers of Clinical Nutrition.
