ABSTRACT
Uremic malnutrition is highly prevalent and is associated with
poor clinical outcomes in end-stage renal disease (ESRD)
patients. Inadequate diet and a state of persistent catabolism
play major roles in predisposing these patients to uremic
malnutrition and appear to have an additive eect on overall
outcome. Recent studies highlight the existence of a complex syndrome involving chronic inammation, metabolic

UREMIC MALNUTRITION
Nutritional Supplementation
Due to the magnitude of the catabolic processes
leading to uremic malnutrition, dietary counseling
alone fails to optimize dietary intake in certain
subgroups of malnourished dialysis patients. For these
patients, other forms of supplementation such as
enteral (including oral protein, amino acid tablets and
energy supplementation, nasogastric tubes, and percutaneous endoscopic gastroscopy or jejunostomy tubes)
as well as intradialytic parenteral nutrition (IDPN) can
be considered.
Oral Supplementation. There are only a limited
number of studies evaluating the efcacy of oral
nutritional supplementation in dialysis patients and they
have shown conicting results (7678). Nevertheless,
recent preliminary reports provide intriguing data
regarding benecial effects of oral nutritional supplementation in chronic dialysis patients. Eustace et al. (79)
reported that oral amino acid supplements signicantly
improved serum albumin concentration in HD subjects
in a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled pilot
study. In a more recent study, Caglar et al. (80) found
that oral nutritional supplementation improved several
nutritional parameters (including serum albumin and
serum prealbumin concentrations, as well as SGA) in a
large group of malnourished chronic HD patients. A
novel aspect of this study is that nutritional supplementation was given during HD, which not only improved
compliance, but also provided supplements at a time
when catabolism is at its highest level in these patients
(80). While provocative, these studies can be considered
as preliminary, with ndings that warrant larger, randomized clinical trials. In the meantime, as a practical
measure, oral nutritional supplementation should be
attempted in malnourished dialysis patients if the
problems that could be responsible for reducing nutrition
intake cannot be resolved.
