Bayram R, Budak S, YIldIz H. The effect of non-compliance with diet and liquid restriction on fatigue in dialysis patients. Rev Esc Enferm USP 2024; 58:20230251. [PMID: 38808906 PMCID: PMC11135046 DOI: 10.1590/1980-220x-reeusp-2023-0251en] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to determine the relationship between non-compliance with dietary and fluid restriction, body mass index, and the severity of fatigue in dialysis patients. METHOD A descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted on 42 dialysis patients. The data were collected employing a "General Information Form", Body Mass Index, "Fatigue Severity Scale", and "Dialysis Diet and Fluid Non-Adherence Questionnaire.". Data were evaluated using percentages, averages, one-way ANOVA, T-tests, and Pearson correlation tests. RESULTS The average number of days when the patients did not comply with their diet was 3.69 ± 4.85, and the average number of days when they did not comply with fluid restriction was 2.71 ± 5.02. The age and marital status of the patients were found to affect the fatigue severity. It was found that the cases were associated with creatinine and calcium values and the number of days they did not comply with fluid restriction. CONCLUSION It was determined that there was no significant relationship between non-compliance with diet and fluid restriction and the severity of fatigue. It was found that the severity of fatigue was lower in patients who complied with diet and fluid restriction, although not significantly lower than in those who did not comply.

Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of health literacy on patient outcomes in pre-dialysis patients. A semi-experimental study. The study was conducted with 45 intervention and 45 control patients with glomerular filtration rates between 15-44ml/min/1.73m2. The adequate health literacy of the patients in the intervention group increased from 2.2% to 31.1%. Increased health literacy led to a significant decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure values and the severity of symptoms. The study showed that increased health literacy in pre-dialysis patients improves patient outcomes. Nursing care is needed in pre-dialysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioimpedance analysis (BIA) has been demonstrated to add accuracy to nutritional and volume status assessments in dialysis (HD) patients. AIM to describe a sample of dialysis patients from a single center on their demographics and BIA of volume distribution and nutritional status, and mortality during 12-month follow-up. METHODS prospective observational cohort study to evaluate vintage HD patients with single-frequency BIA. RESULTS we evaluated 82 patients, 29% over 65 years old. Elderly patients had higher ECW/TBW (0.51 vs. 0.44, p < 0.0001), and narrower phase angle (PhA) (4.9 vs. 6.4º, p < 0.0001). Fifteen patients (18.2%) died during follow-up, eight (53%) were elderly. Death was associated with age (62.6 vs. 50.2 years, p = 0.012), post-HD PhA (4.8 vs. 6.2º, p = 0.0001), and post-HD ECW/TBW (0.50 vs. 0.45, p = 0.015). The ROC curve analysis to predict mortality found ECW/TBW ≥ 0.47 and PhA ≤ 5.5º to have the best sensitivity and specificity. One-year patient survival was lower with post-HD ECW/TBW ≥ 0.47 (69.5% vs. 90.6%, p = 0.019), age ≥ 65 years (64.2%, vs. 86.2%, p = 0.029), and PhA ≤ 5.5º (68.2 vs. 91.0%, p = 0.002). Cox regression analysis demonstrated that PhA [HR 5.04 (95%CI 1.60-15.86), p = 0.006] remained associated with death after adjusting for age and ECW/TBW. CONCLUSION BIA is useful in assessing volume distribution and nutrition in HD patients, and combined with clinical judgement, may help determine dry weight, especially in elderly patients. Narrower PhA and higher ECW/TBW after HD were associated with poorer one-year survival.

Abstract
RESUMO Antecedentes: Análise de bioimpedância (BIA) demonstrou adicionar acurácia às avaliações de estado nutricional e de volume em pacientes em diálise (HD). Objetivo: descrever amostra de pacientes em diálise de um único centro quanto aos aspectos demográficos e BIA na distribuição de volume e no estado nutricional, e a mortalidade em 12 meses de acompanhamento. Métodos: estudo de coorte observacional prospectivo para avaliar pacientes prevalentes em HD com BIA de frequência única. Resultados: avaliamos 82 pacientes, 29% acima de 65 anos. Pacientes idosos apresentaram maior AEC/ACT (0,51 vs. 0,44; p < 0,0001), e ângulo de fase mais estreito (PhA) (4,9 vs. 6,4º; p < 0,0001). Quinze pacientes (18,2%) foram a óbito durante acompanhamento, oito (53%) eram idosos. Óbito foi associado à idade (62,6 vs. 50,2 anos, p = 0,012), PhA pós-HD (4,8 vs. 6,2º; p = 0,0001), e AEC/ACT pós-HD (0,50 vs. 0,45, p = 0,015). A análise da curva ROC para prever mortalidade constatou que AEC/ACT ≥ 0,47 e PhA ≤ 5,5º apresentam melhor sensibilidade e especificidade. Sobrevida do paciente em um ano foi menor com AEC/ACT pós-HD ≥ 0,47 (69,5% vs. 90,6%; p = 0,019), idade ≥ 65 anos (64,2% vs. 86,2%; p = 0,029), e PhA ≤ 5,5º (68,2 vs. 91,0%; p = 0,002). A análise de regressão de Cox demonstrou que PhA [HR 5,04 (IC 95% 1,60–15,86); p = 0,006] permaneceu associado ao óbito após ajuste para idade e AEC/ACT. Conclusão: BIA é útil ao avaliar distribuição de volume e nutrição em pacientes em HD, e juntamente com julgamento clínico, pode ajudar a determinar o peso seco, principalmente em pacientes idosos. PhA mais estreito e maior AEC/ACT pós-HD foram associados a pior sobrevida em um ano.

High Inferior Vena Cava Diameter with High Left Ventricular End Systolic Diameter as a Risk Factor for Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events, Cardiovascular and Overall Mortality among Chronic Hemodialysis Patients. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11185485. [PMID: 36143131 PMCID: PMC9503705 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11185485] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2022] [Revised: 09/08/2022] [Accepted: 09/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Little is known about the association of inferior vena cava diameter (IVCD) and left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD) with mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Methods: The single medical center observational cohort study enrolled 241 adult chronic HD patients from 1 October 2018 to 31 December 2018. Echocardiography results of IVCD and LVESD prior to dialysis were retrieved and patients were divided into high IVCD and low IVCD groups. Patients who received HD via a tunneled cuffed catheter were excluded. Study outcomes included all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Subgroup analyses of HD patients with high and low LVESD were also performed. Results: The incidence of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and MACE were higher in chronic HD patients with high IVCD (p < 0.01). High IVCD patients had significantly greater all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and MACE (log-rank test; p < 0.05). High IVCD patients are also associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality and MACE relative to low IVCD patients (aHRs, 2.88 and 3.42; 95% CIs, 1.06−7.86 and 1.73−6.77, respectively; all p < 0.05). In the subgroup analysis of patients with high or low LVESD, the high IVCD remained a significant risk factor for all-cause mortality and MACE, and the HR is especially high in the high LVESD group. Conclusions: Dilated IVCD is a risk factor for all-cause mortality and MACE in chronic HD patients. In addition, these patients with high LVESD also have a significantly higher HR of all-cause mortality and MACE.

Abstract
Aim Aim of this study was to develop a valid and reliable measuring tool in order to evaluate comfort of patients receiving hemodialysis treatment. Background There has been available a scale developed to evaluate comfort of hemodialysis patients "HDCS (Hemodialysis Comfort Scale)." Due to HDCS consisted of nine items and evaluated comfort in two sub-dimensions, researchers who developed HDCS, stated that number of scale items and dimensions is not sufficient to fully evaluate comfort. Therefore, (Hemodialysis Comfort Scale Version II) HDCS-II was developed with this research and its development process were discussed in this article. Materials and Methods Sample of this methodological research was consisted of 436 chronic hemodialysis patients, treated at five hemodialysis centers between October 2018 and May 2019. In process of creation item pool, comfort theory and literature was examined. The items in the old scale were also revised and included. Thereby a new question pool of 87 items was created. This draft scale was sent for expert opinion. In validity of scale; content validity index, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis were used. In reliability study; Item analysis, cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient, parallel form reliability and item analysis based on upper-lower group averages were used. Results There was consistency between expert views relating to items in scale. According to exploratory factor analysis, scale consisted of six dimensions. Cronbach alpha coefficient of 26-item scale was 0.79. Alpha values of the six factor in scale were, respectively; for physical relief 0.83, for physical ease 0.71, for psychospiritual ease 0.87, for psychospiritual transcendence 0.85, for environmental transcendence 0.82, and for sociocultural ease 0.61. Conclusion HDCS-II is a 5-point likert type and consists of 26 items and 6 factors. This scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool that can be used to determine comfort of patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and Objectives Compliance with dietary, fluid, and medication instructions is a critically significant factor for the health and well-being of patients undergoing hemodialysis for an extended period. The current study assessed the correlation between noncompliance behavior and biochemical parameters of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis. The study's objectives were 1) to assess patients' noncompliance behavior using a questionnaire, 2) to determine the biochemical parameters of CKD patients having noncompliance behavior, and 3) to find the correlation between biological parameters and noncompliance behavior.
Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted from July 12, 2018, to February 10, 2019. A purposive sampling technique was used to recruit the participants, and 100 participants were included in the study. The End-Stage Renal Disease–Adherence Questionnaire was used to assess the non-compliance behavior.
Results Most dialysis patients (70%) were compliant with the therapeutic regime, while 30% failed to comply. The study revealed a significant positive correlation between noncompliance behavior and biochemical parameters of CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis (r = 0.578, p < 0.05).
Conclusion Noncompliance behavior is significantly correlated with the biochemical parameters among patients with CKD on dialysis. Optimal health is possible through fluid and dietary compliance in these patients. Hence, adherence behavior plays a significant role in the health and recovery of dialysis patients with CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-adherence to diet and fluid restrictions in hemodialysis (HD) patients can lead to undesired health outcomes. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to estimate the pooled prevalence of non-adherence to diet and fluid restrictions in HD patients. METHODS Research papers from PubMed, CINAHL, and Google Scholar on non-adherence to diet and fluid restrictions in HD patients published between 2000 and 2020 were selected for this study. The methodological quality of each study was graded, and the estimates were pooled using the random-effects model of meta-analysis. Analyses of subgroups and meta-regression were carried out. Egger's test and visual analysis of the symmetry of funnel plots were used to assess the publication bias. RESULTS Eight hundred sixty-eight potential records were identified during the search. Twenty-three studies that met inclusion criteria were considered for meta-analysis and comprised 11,209 HD patients (mean age 55.85 years± SD 6.86, males 57.74%). The estimated worldwide prevalence of non-adherence to diet and fluid restrictions was 60.2% (95% CI: 47.3- 72.5) and 60.6% (95% CI: 50- 70.7), respectively. The meta-regression found that the income category was negatively, and the risk of bias score was positively associated with the prevalence of non-adherence to fluid restrictions (p<0.05). The funnel plot of studies included pooling the prevalence of non-adherence to fluid restrictions revealed asymmetry, and a significant publication bias was also noted as assessed by Egger's test (P = 0.004). However, the pooled estimate should be interpreted with caution because the prevalence of individual studies varies considerably due to methodological or measurement discrepancies. CONCLUSION The pooled prevalence of non-adherence to diet (47.3 - 72.5%) and fluid (50 - 70.7%) restrictions were substantially high. The health care team must recognize the factors and barriers influencing adherence behavior and develop holistic interventions to improve it.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The factors related to fluid intake adherence among patients undergoing hemodialysis have been explored in many studies. However, most of these were conducted in Western countries and have produced inconsistent results. A study of this issue in Indonesia, a tropical country with strong herbal medicine traditions, may show different results. In addition to demographic characteristics, self-efficacy is a standard measurement used in chronic care management activities such as hemodialysis treatment. Understanding the reasons behind patient nonadherence in Indonesia may help nurses better manage the fluid intake of patients. PURPOSE This study was designed to determine the factors that predict patient adherence to fluid intake restrictions. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted on 153 patients undergoing hemodialysis at two hospitals. Intradialytic weight gain over a 1-month period was recorded to assess the participants' adherence to fluid intake restrictions. Intradialytic weight gains of more than 2 kg was considered to be nonadherent. A daily urine output and level of thirst were also recorded. The participants completed an adapted self-efficacy questionnaire, Swedish Fluid Intake Appraisal Inventory, and the data were analyzed together with demographic characteristic and clinical parameters using hierarchical multiple regression. RESULTS The results revealed that most of the respondents did not adequately adhere to fluid intake restrictions (59.5%). Intradialytic weight gain was shown to strongly correlate with self-efficacy (p < .05, β = -.201), gender (p < .05, β = -.179), educational background (p = .05, β = .159), and urine output (p < .05, β = -.168). Demographic characteristic explained 10.6% and self-efficacy explained 3.9% of the variance in fluid adherence. CONCLUSIONS/IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Female participants with higher self-efficacy scores reported the lowest average level of intradialytic weight gain, indicating better adherence to fluid intake restrictions. Several demographic factors as well as self-efficacy were identified as potential predictors of fluid intake restriction adherence. Therefore, measuring self-efficacy periodically is a good initial step toward detecting those patients who are at higher risk of noncompliance with fluid intake restrictions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The search for the 'perfect' renal replacement therapy has been paralleled by the search for the perfect biomarkers for assessing dialysis adequacy. Three main families of markers have been assessed: small molecules (prototype: urea); middle molecules (prototype β2-microglobulin); comprehensive and nutritional markers (prototype of the simplified assessment, albumin levels; composite indexes as malnutrition-inflammation score). After an era of standardization of dialysis treatment, personalized dialysis schedules are increasingly proposed, challenging the dogma of thrice-weekly hemodialysis. AREAS COVERED In this review, we describe the advantages and limitations of the approaches mentioned above, focusing on the open questions regarding personalized schedules and incremental hemodialysis. EXPERT OPINION In the era of personalized dialysis, the assessment of dialysis adequacy should be likewise personalized, due to the limits of 'one size fits all' approaches. We have tried to summarize some of the relevant issues regarding the determination of dialysis adequacy, attempting to adapt them to an elderly, highly comorbidity population, which would probably benefit from tailor-made dialysis prescriptions. While no single biomarker allows precisely tailoring the dialysis dose, we suggest using a combination of clinical and biological markers to prescribe dialysis according to comorbidity, life expectancy, residual kidney function, and small and medium-size molecule depuration.

Abstract
Among hemodialysis patients aged more than 40 years old, previous large-scale studies showed statin treatment had no effect on reducing cardiovascular adverse events. However, young-adult-onset end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients have different physicosocial factors compared to older ESRD patients. The benefit of statins in such a specific group has not been well evaluated. Through the use of Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD), young adult patients aged 20-40 with incident ESRD requiring permanent dialysis between 1 January 2003 and 31 December 2015 were identified. The enrollees were further divided into two groups depending on whether they received statin therapy for more than 90 days (statin group) or never received any statin (nonstatin group) in the first year after initiation of dialysis. Propensity score weighting (PSW) was used to balance the baseline characteristics between the two groups. After PSW, the statin group (n = 771) exhibited a higher rate of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) (2.65% vs. 1.44%, hazard ratio (HR): 1.87, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.43-2.45), and acute myocardial infarction (1.51% vs. 0.30%, HR: 5.34, 95% CI: 3.40-8.39) compared to the nonstatin group (n = 1709). The risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular (CV) death. and stroke did not significantly differ between the two groups. Similar to older patients, this study demonstrated that statin therapy cannot offer any protective effects in reducing CV outcomes among young adult ESRD patients undergoing dialysis.

[PMID: 33220132 DOI: 10.1111/ijcp.13842] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2020] [Accepted: 11/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adherence to fluid intake, diet, and drug management is very important in hemodialysis patients. Educational and self-management interventions are frequently used to improve adherence to treatment in hemodialysis patients. OBJECTIVES To synthesize a comparison of the effect of educational and self-management interventions on adherence to treatment in hemodialysis patients in randomized controlled trials. METHODS Systematic searches were conducted using 11 multidisciplinary databases in June 2020. The PRISMA checklist was used. The subgroup analysis was used to compare the effect of educational and self-management interventions on adherence to fluid intake, diet, and drug management. RESULTS In the included studies, educational interventions were performed ranging from 15 to 60 minutes, in 1-72 sessions. Self-management interventions were performed ranging from 10 to 120 minutes, in 1-84 sessions. The overall effect of educational interventions was small on adherence to fluid intake (P = .019, Hedges' g = -0.39), diet in serum phosphorus level (P = .001, Hedges' g = -0.35), drug management (P = .002, Hedges' g = -0.44), and not significant on adherence to diet in serum potassium level (P = .181). The overall effect of self-management interventions was small on adherence to fluid intake (P = .001, Hedges' g = -0.19) and diet in serum phosphorus level (P < .001, Hedges' g = -0.42). Additionally, the overall effect of self-management interventions was moderate on adherence to diet in serum potassium level (P = .002, Hedges' g = -0.75) and drug management (P < .001, Hedges' g = -0.55). There was no difference between the educational and self-management interventions on adherence to fluid intake, diet, and drug management (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS The analysis shows that educational and self-management interventions had a beneficial effect on adherence to fluid intake, diet, and drug management and no difference between these interventions. Therefore, these interventions can be used by healthcare professionals. It is also recommended that these interventions be well defined and transferable to routine clinical practice.

Strategies designed to increase the motivation for and adherence to dietary recommendations in patients with chronic kidney disease. Nephrol Dial Transplant 2020; 36:2173-2181. [DOI: 10.1093/ndt/gfaa177] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2019] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) often requires several dietary adjustments to control the disease-related disturbances. This is challenging for both patients and healthcare providers, and particularly for dietitians, who deal closely with the poor adherence to dietary recommendations. Factors associated with poor adherence within the CKD scenario and the need for a shift in the paradigm have already been indicated in several studies; however, rarely are any different and/or potential strategies actually formulated in order to change this paradigm. In this review, we aimed to explore the concepts and factors surrounding adherence to dietary recommendations in CKD and further describe certain potential strategies for a nutritional counseling approach. Such strategies, while poorly explored within CKD, have shown positive results in other chronic disease scenarios. It is timely, therefore, for healthcare providers to acquire these new counseling skills; nevertheless, this would require a rethinking of the traditional attitudes and approaches in order to build a partnership, based on a nonjudgmental and compassionate style in order to guide behavior change. The reflections presented in this review may contribute towards enhancing motivation and the adherence to dietary recommendations in CKD patients.

Zimbudzi E, Kerr PG. The impact of the Christmas holiday effect on interdialytic weight gain in hemodialysis patients: A multicenter observational retrospective cohort study. Hemodial Int 2020; 25:257-264. [PMID: 33145982 DOI: 10.1111/hdi.12901] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2020] [Revised: 10/10/2020] [Accepted: 10/20/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The 3-day interdialytic interval (IDI) is associated with high interdialytic weight gain (IDWG), but little is known about the effect of public or religious holidays on IDWG. Consequently, we evaluated the impact of the "Christmas holiday effect" on IDWG of hemodialysis patients. METHODS A retrospective cohort study of adult hemodialysis patients (over 18 years) was conducted across five dialysis units in Australia. Demographic and clinical data were collected from electronic medical records. IDWG was established for three time points; regular 3-day IDI, 2-day IDI preceding the Christmas holiday and a 3-day IDI that included the Christmas holiday. Paired t-tests and logistic regression were used to compare differences in mean IDWG before and after the Christmas holiday and to examine factors associated with high IDWG, respectively. FINDINGS Two hundred and fifty-two patients, 69% of whom were male, with mean (SD) age of 65.4 ± 15.3 years, were studied. Most had end-stage kidney disease due to diabetes (44%), and they had been on hemodialysis for a median of 25.5 (IQR, 60-10) months. There was a significant increase in absolute IDWG (MD 0.21 kg, 95% CI -0.07 to 0.36; P = 0.004) and relative IDWG (MD 0.3%, 95% CI 0.10-0.40; P = 0.01) after the holiday 3-day IDI compared with the regular 3-day IDI. Older age (OR 0.12; 95% CI 0.02-0.55) and a unit increase in hemoglobin (OR 0.94; 95% CI 0.89-0.99) were associated with lower odds of high relative IDWG while speaking a language other than English increased the odds for high relative IDWG (OR 5.03; 95% CI 1.12-22.65). CONCLUSION Absolute and relative IDWG increased significantly after the Christmas holiday. Individualizing dialysis needs may improve outcomes for these patients.

Perceptions on Adherence to Dietary Prescriptions for Adults with Chronic Kidney Disease on Hemodialysis: A Qualitative Study. Diseases 2020; 8:diseases8030029. [PMID: 32781501 PMCID: PMC7565887 DOI: 10.3390/diseases8030029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2020] [Revised: 07/07/2020] [Accepted: 07/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Diet is one of the modifiable lifestyle factors in management of kidney disease. We explored perceptions on adherence to dietary prescriptions for adults with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis. This was a qualitative descriptive study. Participants were purposively selected at renal clinics/dialysis units at national referral hospitals in Kenya. Data were collected using in-depth interviews, note-taking and voice-recording. The data were managed and analyzed thematically in NVIV0-12 computer software. Study participants were 52 patients and 40 family caregivers (42 males and 50 females) aged 20 to 69 years. Six sub-themes emerged in this study: “perceived health benefits”; “ease in implementing prescribed diets”; “cost of prescribed renal diets”; “nutrition information and messages”; “transition to new diets” and “fear of complications/severity of disease”. Both patients and caregivers acknowledged the health benefits of adherence to diet prescriptions. However, there are mixed messages to the patients and caregivers who have challenges with management and acceptability of the prescriptions. Most of them make un-informed dietary decisions that lead to consumption of unhealthy foods with negative outcomes such as metabolic waste accumulation in the patients’ bodies negating the effects of dialysis and undermining the efforts of healthcare system in management of patients with chronic kidney disease.

BMC Nephrol 2020; 21:215. [PMID: 32503496 PMCID: PMC7275316 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-020-01805-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 52] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2019] [Accepted: 04/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background There is mounting evidence that individuals with kidney disease and kidney stones have an abnormal gut microbiota composition. No studies to date have summarised the evidence to categorise how the gut microbiota profile of these individuals may differ from controls. Synthesis of this evidence is essential to inform future clinical trials. This systematic review aims to characterise differences of the gut microbial community in adults with kidney disease and kidney stones, as well as to describe the functional capacity of the gut microbiota and reporting of diet as a confounder in these studies. Methods Included studies were those that investigated the gut microbial community in adults with kidney disease or kidney stones and compared this to the profile of controls. Six scientific databases (CINHAL, Medline, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library), as well as selected grey literature sources, were searched. Quality assessment was undertaken independently by three authors. The system of evidence level criteria was employed to quantitatively evaluate the alteration of microbiota by strictly considering the number, methodological quality and consistency of the findings. Additional findings relating to altered functions of the gut microbiota, dietary intakes and dietary methodologies used were qualitatively summarised. Results Twenty-five articles met the eligibility criteria and included data from a total of 892 adults with kidney disease or kidney stones and 1400 controls. Compared to controls, adults with kidney disease had increased abundances of several microbes including Enterobacteriaceae, Streptococcaceae, Streptococcus and decreased abundances of Prevotellaceae, Prevotella, Prevotella 9 and Roseburia among other taxa. Adults with kidney stones also had an altered microbial composition with variations to Bacteroides, Lachnospiraceae NK4A136 group, Ruminiclostridium 5 group, Dorea, Enterobacter, Christensenellaceae and its genus Christensenellaceae R7 group. Differences in the functional potential of the microbial community between controls and adults with kidney disease or kidney stones were also identified. Only three of the 25 articles presented dietary data, and of these studies, only two used a valid dietary assessment method. Conclusions The gut microbiota profile of adults with kidney disease and kidney stones differs from controls. Future study designs should include adequate reporting of important confounders such as dietary intake to assist with interpretation of findings.

Abstract
Dysgeusia (abnormal taste) is common in those with chronic kidney disease and contributes to poor nutritional intake. Previous sensory work has shown that taste improves after dialysis sessions. The goal of this pilot study was to characterize altered taste perceptions in patients on dialysis compared with healthy adults, and to evaluate relationships between serum parameters with taste perceptions. We hypothesized that patients undergoing dialysis would experience blunted taste intensities compared with controls, and that serum levels of potential tastants would be inversely related to taste perception of compounds. Using a cross-sectional design, we carried out suprathreshold sensory assessments (flavor intensity and liking) of tastants/flavors potentially influenced by kidney disease and/or the dialysis procedure. These included sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride, sodium phosphate, phosphoric acid, urea, ferrous sulfate, and monosodium glutamate. Individuals on maintenance hemodialysis (n= 17, 10 males, range 23-87 years) were compared with controls with normal gustatory function (n=29, 13 males, range 21-61 years). Unadjusted values for intensity and liking for the solutions showed minimal differences. However, when values were adjusted for participants' perceptions of water (as a control for taste abnormalities), intensity of monosodium glutamate, sodium chloride, and sodium phosphate solutions were more intense for patients on dialysis compared with controls. Some significant correlations were also observed between serum parameters, particularly potassium, for dialysis patients and sensory ratings. These results suggest altered taste perception in patients during dialysis warrants further study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To develop the NefroPortatil mobile application (app) and evaluate its effects on the management of patients undergoing dialysis. METHODS The first stage of the work was the development, installation, and establishment of the instructions to use the phone app as an instrument to aid in the control of fluid and food intake of 52 patients undergoing dialysis. In the second stage, the patients were monitored for 3 months and evaluated using questionnaires to measure the improvement in quality of life (Kidney Disease Quality of Life Instrument) and self-management of disease (Perceived Medical Condition Self-Management Scale) by the app. In addition, laboratory tests were performed before app use and in the first, second, and third months of its use (January to April 2018). Analysis of variance was used to analyze the laboratory data, and a paired Student's t test was used to analyze the responses to the questionnaires and as a posttest (P < .05). RESULTS Among the laboratory test results, serum phosphorus levels showed a significant difference (P < .04) after the app was used. A significant improvement was observed in self-management of the disease according to the Perceived Medical Condition Self-Management Scale questionnaire (P < .03). The usability of the app reached a median score of 9.65 from a total score of 10. CONCLUSION The NefroPortatil app improved the degree of perception of self-care of patients undergoing dialysis with chronic kidney failure, in addition to favoring nutritional control.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Adherence to dietary prescriptions among patients with chronic kidney disease is known to prevent deterioration of kidney functions and slow down the risk for morbidity and mortality. This study determined factors associated with adherence to dietary prescription among adult patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis.
Methods
A mixed-methods study, using parallel mixed design, was conducted at the renal clinics and dialysis units at the national teaching and referral hospitals in Kenya from September 2018 to January 2019. The study followed a QUAN + qual paradigm, with quantitative survey as the primary method. Adult patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis without kidney transplant were purposively sampled for the quantitative survey. A sub-sample of adult patients and their caregivers were purposively sampled for the qualitative survey. Numeric data were collected using a structured, self-reported questionnaire using Open Data Kit “Collect software” while qualitative data were collected using in-depth interview guides and voice recording. Analysis on STATA software for quantitative and NVIV0 12 for qualitative data was conducted. The dependent variable, “adherence to diet prescription” was analyzed as a binary variable. P values < 0.1 and < 0.05 were considered as statistically significant in univariate and multivariate logistic regression models respectively. Qualitative data were thematically analyzed.
Results
Only 36.3% of the study population adhered to their dietary prescriptions. Factors that were independently associated with adherence to diet prescriptions were “flexibility in the diets” (AOR 2.65, 95% CI 1.11–6.30, P 0.028), “difficulties in following diet recommendations” (AOR 0.24, 95% CI 0.13–0.46, P < 001), and “adherence to limiting fluid intake” (AOR 9.74, 95% CI 4.90–19.38, P < 0.001).
Conclusions
For patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis, diet prescriptions with less restrictions and requiring minimal extra efforts and resources are more likely to be adhered to than the restrictive ones. Patients who adhere to their fluid intake restrictions easily follow their diet prescriptions. Prescribed diets should be based on the individual patient’s usual dietary habits and assessed levels of challenges in using such diets. Additionally, diet adherence messages should be integrated with fluid limitation messages. Further research on understanding patients’ adherence to fluid restriction is also suggested.

BACKGROUND We analyzed the dietary patterns of Brazilian individuals with a self-declared diagnosis of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and explored associations with treatment modality. METHODS Weekly consumption of 14 food intake markers was analyzed in 839 individuals from the 2013 Brazil National Health Survey with a self-declared diagnosis of CKD undergoing nondialysis (n = 480), dialysis (n = 48), or renal transplant (n = 17) treatment or no CKD treatment (n = 294). Dietary patterns were derived by exploratory factor analysis of food intake groups. Multiple linear regression models, adjusted by sociodemographic and geographical variables, were used to evaluate possible differences in dietary pattern scores between different CKD treatment groups. RESULTS Two food patterns were identified: an "Unhealthy" pattern (red meat, sweet sugar beverages, alcoholic beverages, and sweets and a negative loading of chicken, excessive salt, and fish) and a "Healthy" pattern (raw and cooked vegetables, fruits, fresh fruit juice, and milk). The Unhealthy pattern was inversely associated with nondialysis and dialysis treatment (β: -0.20 (95% CI: -0.33; -0.06) and β: -0.80 (-1.16; -0.45), respectively) and the Healthy pattern was positively associated with renal transplant treatment (β: 0.32 (0.03; 0.62)). CONCLUSIONS Two dietary patterns were identified in Brazilian CKD individuals and these patterns were linked to CKD treatment modality.

Creatine is a Conditionally Essential Nutrient in Chronic Kidney Disease: A Hypothesis and Narrative Literature Review. Nutrients 2019; 11:nu11051044. [PMID: 31083291 PMCID: PMC6567063 DOI: 10.3390/nu11051044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2019] [Revised: 04/23/2019] [Accepted: 05/08/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
To accommodate the loss of the plethora of functions of the kidneys, patients with chronic kidney disease require many dietary adjustments, including restrictions on the intake of protein, phosphorus, sodium and potassium. Plant-based foods are increasingly recommended as these foods contain smaller amounts of saturated fatty acids, protein and absorbable phosphorus than meat, generate less acid and are rich in fibers, polyunsaturated fatty acids, magnesium and potassium. Unfortunately, these dietary recommendations cannot prevent the occurrence of many symptoms, which typically include fatigue, impaired cognition, myalgia, muscle weakness, and muscle wasting. One threat coming with the recommendation of low-protein diets in patients with non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD) and with high-protein diets in patients with dialysis-dependent CKD, particularly with current recommendations towards proteins coming from plant-based sources, is that of creatine deficiency. Creatine is an essential contributor in cellular energy homeostasis, yet on a daily basis 1.6–1.7% of the total creatine pool is degraded. As the average omnivorous diet cannot fully compensate for these losses, the endogenous synthesis of creatine is required for continuous replenishment. Endogenous creatine synthesis involves two enzymatic steps, of which the first step is a metabolic function of the kidney facilitated by the enzyme arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (AGAT). Recent findings strongly suggest that the capacity of renal AGAT, and thus endogenous creatine production, progressively decreases with the increasing degree of CKD, to become absent or virtually absent in dialysis patients. We hypothesize that with increasing degree of CKD, creatine coming from meat and dairy in food increasingly becomes an essential nutrient. This phenomenon will likely be present in patients with CKD stages 3, 4 and 5, but will likely be most pronouncedly present in patients with dialysis-dependent CKD, because of the combination of lowest endogenous production of creatine and unopposed losses of creatine into the dialysate. It is likely that these increased demands for dietary creatine are not sufficiently met. The result of which, may be a creatine deficiency with important contributions to the sarcopenia, fatigue, impaired quality of life, impaired cognition, and premature mortality seen in CKD.

Das AM, Ramamoorthy L, Narayan SK, Wadwekar V. Barriers of Drug Adherence among Patients with Epilepsy: in Tertiary Care Hospital, South India. J Caring Sci 2018; 7:177-181. [PMID: 30607357 PMCID: PMC6311624 DOI: 10.15171/jcs.2018.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2017] [Accepted: 10/22/2018] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Epilepsy is a treatable and curable brain disorder. However major proportion of individuals with this disease in developing countries receives no treatment because of misunderstandings of the public. Other than that, poor adherence to ordered medication is considered the primary cause of drug therapy failure in epilepsy. This study conducted to assess the adherence pattern to antiepileptic regimen, among patients with epilepsy and to identify the clinical and patient-related factors contributing as barriers. Methods: A cross sectional survey design was used in 100 epilepsy patients in an Outpatient unit of tertiary care center. A Convenient sampling technique was used to enroll the patients who meet inclusion criteria. Structured interview with pre-tested questionnaire and eight item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale was used to collect the data. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for analysis of data. Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, frequency and percentages) were used to describe the clinical and demographic variables of study participants. The determinants of medication adherence were analyzed using Chi-Square test and independent student t- test. The analysis was done with SPSS 20th version. Results: Majority (71%) of patients were not adherent to antiepileptic treatment. Severity of seizure (indicated by the presence of seizure last year), medication frequency and complexity of treatment were found to have significant association with the Anti-Epileptic Drugs (AED) adherence status. Status of adherence is significantly associated with frequency of seizure/year and positive life style. Conclusion: As Medication adherence was observed to be low, services for adherence counseling and health educational interventions in the epilepsy clinics is recommended.
