Brief Summary

This study is a prospective open label clinical trial comparing serum albumin levels and total protein intake in the peritoneal dialysis patient population. A total of 60 patients were enrolled, 16 chose to be in the natural food group and 44 in the supplement group. 4 were lost to follow-up in the supplement group leading to an n of 40. Both groups were educated by dietitians on how to increase their protein intake to a goal of 1.4g/kg/day. The groups were followed for 3 months with protein intake calculated according to the patient's food diaries. Patient demographics and characteristics were compared in both groups.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Serum Albumin Levels

    serum levels of albumin

    After three months of intervention.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Serum Phosphorus levels

    At Month 0, 1, 2, and 3

  • Goal protein intake

    At Month 0, 1, 2, and 3

  • Serum albumin levels

    At Month 0, 1, 2, and 3

Study Arms (2)

Supplement Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The protein supplement group was instructed by their dietician in how many protein supplements to consume in addition to their natural food intake in order to reach their goal protein intake.

Behavioral: increase protein intake via protein supplements

Natural Food Group

EXPERIMENTAL

The Natural food group was instructed by their dietician in how much additional protein rich foods to eat in order to reach their goal protein intake.

Behavioral: increased protein intake via natural foods

Interventions

Patients had to eat 1.4g/kg/day of natural protein.

Natural Food Group

Patients ate enough protein supplements in addition to their regular diet to reach eat 1.4g/kg/day of protein intake.

Supplement Group
