Bioimpedance analysis of total body water in hemodialysis patients.

TLDR
The need for a simple and accurate measurement of TBW in dialysis patients is particularly important, as it directly relates to urea kinetic modeling (UKM) and has implications for the assessment of dry weight.

Predicting body cell mass with bioimpedance by using theoretical methods: a technological review

TL;DR: Results add further support to the validity of the Hanai theory, the equation used, and the conclusion that ECW and ICW volume can be predicted by an approach based solely on fundamental principles.

Assessment of Dry Weight in Hemodialysis An Overview

TL;DR: It is evident that a better understanding of both interdialytic fluid status and fluid changes during hemodialysis is required to develop a precise measure of fluid balance and the need for a marker of adequacy for fluid removal is explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nutrition in end-stage renal disease

TL;DR: It is important to emphasize that malnutrition is a major co-morbid condition in the ESRD population and that the nutritional status and the treatment parameters of these patients should be altered to improve not only the mortality outcome of E SRD patients but also their quality of life.

A review of body composition studies with emphasis on total body water and fat.

TL;DR: Tritiated water meausres a volume 4 to 15% body weight larger than that by desiccation, and, at present, only 0.0% of the overestimation can be explained by the exchange of hydrogen of tritiated water with those of the proteins and carbohydrates of the body.

Estimation of extracellular and total body water by multiple-frequency bioelectrical-impedance measurement

TL;DR: BI at dual frequencies is valid for determination of body-water compartments and may be useful in the nutritional assessment of patients in whom body water and hydration is of clinical concern.

Plasma volume recovery after ultrafiltration in patients with chronic renal failure

TL;DR: It is indicated that the tissue hydration state has a strong influence on changes in PV during fluid removal and the subsequent repletion of PV, with special reference to the tissue Hydration before UF.

Assessment of postdialysis dry weight: a comparison of techniques.

TL;DR: Because VCD and EFV were related and interpretation yielded diagnoses of postdialysis hydration state that were substantiated by the finding of classical hemodynamic features of underhydration, both are an asset in the diagnosis of post dialysis dry weight.
