Managing patient 'dry weight'according to clinical standards has deficiencies. Research has
focused on the effectiveness of using bioelectrical impedance technology for fluid …

Purpose Malnutrition and fluid overload contribute to the poor cardiovascular prognosis of
dialysis patients. Since bioelectrical impedance analysis is an option for the evaluation of …

Background Volume overload is a common complication in patients with end-stage kidney
disease who undergo maintenance dialysis therapy and associated with hypertension, left …

Background Chronic fluid overload is common in maintenance hemodialysis (HD) patients
and is associated with severe cardiovascular complications, such as arterial hypertension …

Objective: Assessment of fluid status in chronic peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is complex.
Clinical evaluation based solely on body weight, blood pressure, volume of ultrafiltration …

Introduction Fluid management is an important goal of dialysis treatment. The accurate
assessment of fluid status is still a challenge for clinical nephrologists. Bioimpedance …

Fluid overload can be an independent risk factor of cardiovascular events and all-cause
death in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on chronic hemodialysis. We performed a …

Rationale & Objective Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) provides a noninvasive
assessment of body composition. BIA measures of cell integrity (phase angle) and hydration …

There can be little doubt that bioimpedance measurements in patients undergoing dialysis
have predictive value. In a systematic review of cohort studies in which multivariable survival …

Background Chronic subclinical volume overload happens very frequently in hemodialysis
patients and is associated directly with hypertension, increased arterial stiffness, left …
