Patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment are susceptible to many complications. The inadequate stress-coping strategies render them vulnerable to high symptom burden and impaired quality of life. Patients are given conventional treatments to stop or slow down the progress of nephron destruction
Hemodialysis (HD) is an important and commonly used renal replacement therapy (RRT) for End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients worldwide. Single-pool Kt/V (sp Kt/V) is a quantified indicator of HD adequacy and has been recommended should be more than 1.2 by The National Kidney Foundation Disease
Gastritis is a very common disease in children. The main presentation of children with gastritis is recurrent abdominal pain and dyspepsia or vomiting. Young children may have hematemesis or melena as presentation. Drug induced or food related gastritis presents usually with acute symptoms but
Rationale:
The available evidence suggest that End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) and hemodialysis (HD) have harmful effects on the lungs; the investigators hypothesize that these recurring pulmonary insults, in an analogous way as recurring myocardial ischemic injury for the heart, cause long term
Hypothesis Measuring urinary 3-methylhistidine is a simple tool to assess proteolysis in clinical practice. However it is not totally specific of muscle proteolysis because it may reflect an intestinal catabolism. Moreover, its dosage cannot be used in patients with renal impairment especially in
Sarcopenia is a common complication of chronic kidney disease. Sarcopenia is defined by decreased muscle mass or function and is central to the frailty phenotype that is associated disability, hospitalization, and death. Sarcopenia is a common and devastating complication of chronic kidney disease
Patients All patients starting active end stage renal disease (ESRD) treatment at the participating centres and their satellite centres.
No. Patients: 1000.
1. Patients who have received their recent predialysis care at another centre can be included if the previous centre's notes are available,
End stage renal failure patients undergoing dialysis have profound muscle wasting, reduced functional capacity and quality of life due to uremia, steroids, frequent dialysis and fatigue. During dialysis, physical inactivity further deteriorates the patient's functional capacity. Aerobic or strength
In dialysis patients the degree of anemia is highly correlated to both morbidity and mortality. A drop in Hb by 10 g/L translates into an increase in the rate of hospitalizations of 5 to 6 % and a rise in mortality by 4 to 5 %. The past two decades have seen great progress in the treatment of renal
Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis (IRF) is a rare condition hallmarked by the presence of a retroperitoneal mass consisting of chronic inflammatory infiltrate and abundant fibrous tissue. IRF usually presents as a systemic inflammatory disease, with constitutional symptoms (e.g. fatigue, weight
