Relationship between Nutrition-Related Problems and Falls in Hemodialysis Patients: A Narrative Review

Abstract: Falls are a social problem that increase healthcare costs. Hemodialysis (HD) patients need to avoid falling because fractures increase their risk of death. Nutritional problems such as frailty, sarcopenia, undernutrition, protein-energy wasting (PEW), and cachexia may increase the risk of falls and fractures in patients with HD. This review aimed to summarize the impact of frailty, sarcopenia, undernutrition, PEW, and cachexia on falls in HD patients. The reported global incidence of falls in HD patients is 0.… Show more

“…In addition, frailty was found to be an independent risk factor for developing depression in this population: there is thus a linear relation between a greater frailty severity and the probability of depression [ 46 ]. Frailty and sarcopenia were also found to be associated with increased risks of falls, hospitalization, institutionalization, and mortality [ 47 ]. Nutritional status has been associated as well with both depression and anxiety in hemodialysis patients.…”

“…In fact, body composition changes in HD may affect not only muscle mass but also very frequently bone metabolism. In particular, HD patients, due to renal osteodystrophy, are at high risk of falls, fractures, and immobilization leading to a vicious circle worsening fatigue, muscle mass, physical performance, and quality of life [ 29 ].…”

“…Malnutrition, cachexia, and sarcopenia were similar body statuses with metabolism disorders and were always discussed together (44). Elderly and frailty as the main topic of cluster 4 were also hot research points in recent years due to the understanding of sarcopenia in orthopedics, especially the frailty fractures in older adults (45). Older individuals with poor muscle status may not only face a high incidence of fractures and falls but also poor survival and walking ability after surgeries due to fractures (46,47).…”
