Brief Summary

Renal failure is a relevant condition as the incidence of patients treated with intermittent dialysis continues to grow each year. One of the strongest predictors of mortality in these patients is Protein-Energy Wasting (PEW). Optimal nutritional support, combined with physical exercise may be able to improve the physical condition objectified as muscle wasting and weakness. Correct nutritional support must aim to supplement the correct combination of protein and caloric needs. Although no other way exist than predicting formula to assess protein need, predicting formula don't seem to capture the individual caloric need of the patients. The gold standard to assess caloric need by measuring Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) is indirect calorimetry. Even when caloric and protein targets are defined, intake remains a challenge because of intake restriction in dietary patterns. This is why intradialytic parenteral nutrition (IDPN) can play an crucial role for closing the nutritional gap. Whether IDPN guided by indirect calorimetric measurements of metabolism can close the gap when oral intake fails, remains an unanswered question.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

    caloric intake (kcal/day) and caloric need (kcal/day) (see secondary outcomes) will be combined to report caloric adequacy according to this equation: \[sum of percentage of caloric intake/caloric need\]/total of evaluable nutrition days (%)

    Pre-dialysis

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Protein adequacy

    Pre-dialysis

  • Fat Mass (FM)

    20-30 minutes after dialysis

  • Fat Free Mass (FFM)

    20-30 minutes after dialysis

  • Phase angle

    20-30 minutes after dialysis

  • Body weight

    before and after hemodialysis

  • +6 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (6)

  • Descriptive outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Assessments

EXPERIMENTAL

In this single-arm trial, each participant undergoes the following measurements/assessments: Physical: Body weight (before and after dialysis), length Biophysical: NRS2002, GLIM, Bio-electrical Impedance Analysis Metabolic: Indirect Calorimetry Nutritional: dietary anamnesis, 3-days nutritional diary

Device: Indirect CalorimetryDevice: Bio-electrical Impedance Analysis (BIA)Other: Nutritional assessments

Interventions

Indirect Calorimetry (Q-NRG Metabolic Monitor, COSMED) is performed to determine the Resting Energy Expenditure before hemodialysis.

Also known as: Q-NRG Metabolic Monitor, COSMED
Assessments

Bio-electrical Impedance Analysis (BIA101/BIVA, Akern) is used to analyse the body composition (Fat Mass, Fat Free Mass, Phase Angle).

Also known as: BIA101/BIVA, Akern
Assessments

The Nutritional assessments consist of a dietary anamnesis and a 3-day nutritional diary to determine the nutritional (caloric and protein) intake of the participants.

Also known as: Dietary anamnesis, Nutritional diary
Assessments
