Nutritional status is an important factor in long term continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) prognoses. Conventionally, serum albumin is an indicator of nutritional status. More recently, protein catabolic rate and lean body mass have been calculated during peritoneal equilibrium testing to assess nutritional status. These have the advantage of providing an early indication of malnutrition before the serum albumin decreases. Bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA) of nutrition has the advantage of being the simplest procedure among all nutritional assessments. Standard nutritional assessments was compared with the BIA method.The protein catabolic rate and lean body mass was measured by the Keshaviah method. At the same time BIA was used to assess lean body mass, fat mass and fixed percentage of fat in 27 long-term CAPD patients, with and without peritoneal fluids.Among the 27 patients, the protein catabolic rate was 0.95+/-0.5 g/kg/day and lean body mass was 37.4+/-0.5 kg measured by the conventional method. Using BIA, the lean body mass was 37.8+/-11.0 kg with peritoneal dialysate, which was strongly correlated with the conventional method (p0.001). BIA of lean body mass was 37.4+/-9.2 kg without peritoneal dialysate, which was also significantly correlated to the conventional method (p0.001).BIA nutritional assessment of lean body mass was comparable to the conventional method of nutritional assessment. The presence or absence of peritoneal dialysate did not influence the BIA method for detection of lean body mass. BIA has the advantage of being a more simple procedure and can be used for the long-term assessment of nutritional status in CAPD patients. |
