Malnutrition Risk in Hemodialysis Patients in Israel: Results of the Status of Nutrition In Hemodialysis Patients Survey Study

Abstract: Background: Malnutrition is a frequently observed disorder in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) receiving hemodialysis (HD). While variously defined, malnutrition is a frequently observed condition among patients on HD. Prevalence estimates of malnutrition among Israeli HD patients have not been reported. Objectives: To survey nutrition intake in Israeli HD patients; estimate malnutrition risk prevalence; identify risk factors, and characterize malnutrition risk in HD patients. Methods: A representati… Show more

“…We thus categorized malnutrition risk into the following four categories: “minimal” if BMI ≥23 kg/m 2 and serum albumin ≥38 mmol/L; “mild” if BMI <23 kg/m 2 and serum albumin ≥38 mmol/L; “moderate” if BMI ≥23 kg/m 2 and serum albumin <38 mmol/L; and “severe” if BMI<23 k/m 2 and serum albumin <38 mmol/L. This definition identified elevated malnutrition risk in almost 50% of individuals on haemodialysis, including those with normal or elevated BMI 5 …”

“…The Status of Nutrition In Hemodialysis Patients Survey (SNIPS), a large, representative sample of Israelis on haemodialysis, identified elevated malnutrition risk in more than 40% of the study population. Elevated malnutrition risk was associated with the presence of major comorbidities; reduced haemoglobin; elevated C‐reactive protein; and need for feeding assistance 5 . In that study, malnutrition risk was defined as BMI <23 kg/m 2 and/or serum albumin <3.8 g/L, thus capturing depletion of both somatic and visceral protein stores and permitting the inclusion of heavier individuals, many of whom have diabetes, a group previously excluded from the malnutrition risk definition 6 .…”

“…Sarcopenia, which is characterized by a reduction in skeletal muscle, is a progressive and widespread condition that mainly manifests as an accelerated loss of muscle mass and function (Boaz et al., 2019 ). The main cause of sarcopenia in the older population on dialysis is malnutrition.…”
