CASE PRESENTATION-1
Renal Nutrition Forum 2013 • Vol. 32 • No. 4
A 63-year-old male patient who has ESRD secondary to diabetes. He has been on dialysis for three years. Prior to his multiple hospitalizations. He was an active person, had a good appetite and was viewed as a “non-compliant” patient as his phosphorus was always out of control and he usually forgot to take his binders.
He recently had multiple extended hospitalizations.
His first hospitalization was due to altered mental status and hypoglycemia which lasted 9 days. He was then admitted to a rehabilitation facility. His chest x-ray showed a pleural effusion. A MRI of the brain was free. He received dialysis; however, it did not resolve his pleural effusion .
CASE PRESENTATION-2
Renal Nutrition Forum 2013 • Vol. 32 • No. 4
His second admission lasted 26 days and was secondary to confusion after a fall at the rehabilitation facility. A carotid ultrasound detected a bilateral internal carotid arterystenosis and Because of these findings, RS underwent a carotid endarterectomy. He then developed diarrhea postoperatively and was diagnosed with C. difficile colitis which was treated with vancomycin
His total time spent in the sub-acute rehabilitation facility was about three months.
His past medical history included type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hypothyroidism, and congestive heart failure. is a smoker and does not drink alcohol.

PEW(protein energy wasting
)
“Is a states of under-nutrition that could
result from decreased nutrient intake and/or increased catabolism”
Seminars in Dialysis. 2012;25(4):423-27.
TERMINOLOGIES
Uremic malnutrition Protein–energy malnutrition Malnutrition–inflammation atherosclerosis
syndrome Malnutrition–inflammation complex
syndrome Inflammatory wasting
Protein-energy wasting (PEW)
Kidney Int. 2008 Feb;73(4):391-8
PROTEIN-ENERGY WASTING(PEW) Is very common problem among patients
with advanced chronic renal failure (CRF) and those undergoing maintenance dialysis (MD) therapy worldwide.
Different reports suggest that the prevalence of this condition varies from roughly 18-75% of adult MD patients (average 40%).
Seminars in Dialysis. 2012;25(4):423-27
THE MAGNITUDE OF THE PROBLEM In HD patients, the presence of PEW is one of
the strongest predictors of morbidity and mortality.
In addition it was shown that for each one-unit
decrease in BMI the risk for cardiovascular death rose by 6%
Each 1 g/dl fall in serum albumin level was associated with a 39% increase in risk
of cardiovascular deathAm J Kidney Dis (2002)
Inadequate food intake secondary to:
• Anorexia caused by the uremic state• Altered taste sensation• Intercurrent illness• Emotional distress or illness• Impaired ability to procure, prepare, or mechanically ingest foods• Unpalatable prescribed diets
Predialysis patients appeared to have a spontaneous protein intake of <0.6
g/kg/dayAdv Chronic Kidney Dis. 2013 March ; 20(2): 181–189
The catabolic response to superimposed illnesses
The dialysis procedure itself which may promote wasting by removing such
nutrients as amino acids, peptides, protein, glucose, water-soluble vitamins, and other bioactive compounds, and may promote
protein catabolism, due to bioincompatibility
Adv Chronic Kidney Dis. 2013 March ; 20(2): 181–189
Endocrine disorders of uremia (resistance to the actions of insulin and IGF-I,
hyperglucagonemia, and hyperparathyroidism)
Loss of blood due to:• Gastrointestinal bleeding• Frequent blood sampling• Blood sequestered in the hemodialyzer and tubing
Adv Chronic Kidney Dis. 2013 March ; 20(2): 181–189
Screning&
Assessment
SCREENING
Guideline 1.2 – Frequency of screening for undernutrition in CKD
We recommend that screening should be performed (1D)
Weekly for inpatients 2-3 monthly for outpatients with eGFR
<20 but not on dialysis Within one month of starting of dialysis.
ASSESSMENT IN MHD
Nutritional status should be assessed at the start of haemodialysis (Opinion).
In absence of malnutrition, nutritional status should be monitored every 6 months in patients <50 years of age (Opinion).
In patients >50 years of age, and patients undergoing maintenance dialysis for more than 5 years, nutritional status should be monitored every 3 months (Opinion).

SERUM PREALBUMIN
Prealbumin half life is approximately 2 days instead of 20 days for albumin
Serum prealbumin is a more sensitive indicator for the nutrition status than albumin due to its shorter half life and not strongly affected by inflamation like albumin
The patients 2-year survival rate was 50% with a serum prealbumin level <0.3 g/l and 90% in patients with a prealbumin level >0.3 g/l.

Ideally worsening nutrition should be identified early and proactively managed as correcting established malnutrition is difficult. All reversible factors (including inflammation and occult sepsis) should be identified and corrected.
Initiation of dialysis may be required in pre-dialysis patients (2B) KDOQI 2012.
Increased dialysis dose ,the use of biocompatible membranes and ultrapure water have been associated with improved nutritional state.

o Improve appetite & food intakeo General feeling of well being, ↑ed physical
activityo Fewer dietetic restrictionso Decrease dose of medications → Phosphate & K
binders, antihypertensive drugso Increase clearance of potential anorexic factorso Improve metabolic acidosis
DIALYSIS
DIALYSIS Removal of : Amino acids (about 10 to 12 g per HD) Some peptides low amounts of protein (< 1 to 3 g per dialysis,
including blood loss) Small quantities of glucose (about 12 to 25 g per
dialysis if glucose-free dialysate is used)
Inflamatory Cytokine release due to membrane contact.
UK RENAL ASSOCIATION GUIDLINE 2010 Guideline 2.1 – Dose of small solute
removal to prevent undernutrition
We recommend that dialysis dose meets recommended solute clearance index
guidelines (e.g. Kt/V) (1C)
Our results showed that nPCR has increased significantly with increasing the dialysis dose
(target Kt/V), also serum albumin was significantly higher at the end of the study. The Kt/V had a
beneficial effect on neuromuscular and cardiac functions. Also it had a positive impact on the
patients well-being at the end of our study.

WEIGHT AND HD ABW: actual body weight—the patient’s presentbody weight at the time of the observation.
IBW: Ideal body weight—normal weight ofhealthy individuals of similar sex, age, height andskeletal frame size.
USB: usual body weight—the patient’s weightobtained through history or previous
measurements,considered to be stable over time.
efBW: oedema free body weight, corresponding to
‘dry weight’—obtained post-dialysis in HD patients
based on clinical judgement wether the patient still
presents clinical oedema.
AefBW: adjusted oedema-free body weight—should be used in order to calculate the optimal dietary intake of protein and energy.

VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTATIONمخطط إلضافة الرمز فوق انقر
Guideline 2.5 – Vitamin supplementation in
dialysis patientsWe recommend that
haemodialysis patients should be prescribed
supplements ofwater soluble vitamins
(1C).
METABOLIC ACIDOSIS…UK RENAL ASSOCIATION GUIDELINE 2010
Mid-week predialysis serum bicarbonate levels should be maintained at 20–22 mmol/l (Evidence level III).
In patients with venous predialysis bicarbonate persistently <20 mmol/l, oral supplementation with sodium bicarbonate and/or increasing dialysate concentration to 40 mmol/l should be used to correct metabolic acidosis (Evidence level III).
EXERCISE
Guideline 2.6 – Exercise programs in dialysis patients (EBPG 2007)
We recommend that haemodialysis patients should be given the opportunity to participate in regular exercise programmes (1C).
ANABOLIC AGENTS
Guideline 3.5 – Anabolic agents in established undernutrition
We recommend that anabolic agents such as androgens, growth hormone or IGF-1 are not indicated in the treatment of undernutrition in adults (1D).
Androgens and growth hormone have demonstrated improvement in serum albumin levels and lean body mass but not mortality and these medications have significant side effects.
ORAL NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS
Guideline 3.2 – Oral nutritional supplements in established undernutrition
We recommend the use of oral nutritional supplements if oral intake is below the levels indicated above and food intake cannot be improved following dietetic intervention (1C)

Nepro was ordered for RS, which he did not consume at first. By the end of the admission, he was consuming some of the supplement.
He was only receiving Nepro once daily (K/DOQI guidelines, when a patient is unable to consume enough nutrients, use of oral supplements is indicated).
This quantity was not enough, in view of his low oral intake at meals. Therefore, RS’s Nepro dose was increased to three times daily.
liberalize the diet and monitor labs.
