This prospective study uses calf bioimpedance spectroscopy (cBIS) to guide the attainment of dry weight (DWcBIS) in chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate whether body composition is altered when fluid status is reduced to DWcBIS. Target post-HD weight was gradually reduced from baseline (BL) until DWcBIS was achieved. DWcBIS was defined as the presence of both flattening of the curve of extracellular resistance and the attainment calf normalized resistivity in the normal range during the dialysis treatment. Extracellular volume (ECV), intracellular volume, and total body water (TBW) were measured using whole body BIS (Hydra 4200). Fluid overload, lean body mass, and fat mass were calculated according to a body composition model. Seventy-three patients enrolled and 60 completed the study (55 ± 13 years, 49% male). Twenty-eight patients (25% diabetes) achieved DWcBIS, whereas 32 patients (47% diabetes) did not. Number of treatment measuremen...

Background: MLT-550N is a device to measure the body fluid volume based on bioimpedance spectroscopy. When extracellular water (ECW) or total body water (TBW) is measured with MLT-550N before and after hemodialysis, the change in ECW (ΔECW) or TBW (ΔTBW) is markedly larger than the change in body weight (ΔW). Good agreements between ΔECW and ΔTBW calculated by Moissl equations with ΔW were reported. The aim of this study was to develop novel equations to calculate the body fluid volume by modifying Moissl equations. Methods: A total of 466 measurements of 351 hemodialysis patients were used to develop the novel equations. The equations were based on the agreement between ΔECW and ΔW as a guide. The volume of intracellular water was postulated to be constant during hemodialysis. For evaluation of the equations, 5485 measurements of 627 patients were used. Agreements between values of two groups were assessed with Lin's concordance correlation coefficients. The normal edema ratio (ER = ECW/TBW) corrected with the fat ratio (fcER) according to the parameters of normally hydrated lean and adipose tissues was used as the reference for normal hydration. The fluid status at dry weight was considered to be close to normal. The absolute values of the deviated ratio of actual ER (aER) from fcER (dER = (aER−fcER)/fcER) were compared. In this study, 1 L of body water corresponded to 1.02 kg of body fluid according to a previous report. Results: The concordance correlations between ΔW and 1.02•ΔECW or 1.02•ΔTBW with the novel equations were higher than with the MLT method or Moissl equations (0.896, 0.596 vs. 0.411, 0.375 or 0.813, 0.411, respectively). The median value of dER with the novel equations was the lowest (0.062) compared with those of the MLT method and Moissl equations (0.164 and 0.144) (p < 0.001). Conclusions: The agreements between ΔECW or ΔTBW and ΔW were improved by the novel equations compared with the MLT method or Moissl equations. Based on the relation between aER and fcER at dry weight, the fluid volume calculated using the novel equations may be more adequate than those with the MLT method or Moissl equations.

Bioimpedance analysis (BIA) derives two main pieces of information--total tissue fluid content, which when referring to the whole patient is equivalent to the total body water (TBW), and cell mass, which in the limbs mainly reflects muscle. The relationship between these measures, expressed in different ways, is abnormal in dialysis patients due to muscle wasting combined with tissue overhydration. In both dialysis modalities this is associated with aging, comorbidity, and inflammation, and there is a conflict between achieving euvolemia to improve blood pressure control and prevent left ventricular hypertrophy on one hand, but risking episodes of hypovolemia and loss of residual renal function on the other. In peritoneal dialysis, the situation is exacerbated by hypoalbuminemia, whereas in hemodialysis BIA is unable to distinguish between the plasma volume and tissue edema components of interdialytic weight gain. In longitudinal studies BIA can identify changes in hydration followi...

Background: Protein-energy wasting (PEW), associated with inflammation and overhydration, is common in haemodialysis (HD) patients and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Objective: Assess the relationship between nutritional status, markers of inflammation and body composition through bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) in HD patients. Methods: This observational, cross-sectional, single centre study, carried out in an HD centre in Forte da Casa (Portugal), involved 75 patients on an HD programme. In all participating patients, the following laboratory tests were conducted: haemoglobin, albumin, C-reactive protein (CRP) and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3]. The body mass index of all patients was calculated and a modified version of subjective global assessment (SGA) was produced for patients on dialysis. Intracellular water (ICW) and extracellular water (ECW) were measured by BIS (Body Composition Monitor ® , Fresenius Medical Care ®) after the HD session. In statistical analysis, Spearman's correlation was used for the univariate analysis and linear regression for the multivariate analysis (SPSS 14.0). A P value of <.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: PEW, inversely assessed through the ICW/body weight (BW) ratio, was positively related to age (P<.001), presence of diabetes (P=.004), BMI (P=.01) and CRP (P=.008) and negatively related to albumin (p=.006) and 25(OH)D3 (P=.007). Overhydration, assessed directly through the ECW/BW ratio, was positively related with CRP (P=.009) and SGA (P=.03), and negatively with 25(OH)D3 (P=.006) and BMI (P=.01). In multivariate analysis, PEW was associated with older age (P<.001), the presence of diabetes (P=.003), lower 25(OH)D3 (P=.008), higher CRP (P=.

The aim of this study was to demonstrate the ability of widely used bioimpedance techniques to assess dry weight (DW) and to predict a state of normal hydration in haemodialysis patients whose post-dialysis weight had been gradually reduced from baseline in successive treatments over time. Calf bioimpedance spectroscopy (cBIS) was employed to determine DW (DW(cBIS) ) as defined by flattening of an intradialytic continuously measured resistance curve and by normalized resistivity (nRho) being in the gender-specific normal range. The wECV/TBW ratio was determined by &amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;#39;classical&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;#39; wrist-to-ankle whole body bioimpedance spectroscopy (wBIS); in addition, a novel whole body model (WBM) based on wBIS was used to predict normal hydration weight (NHW(WBM) ). Twenty-one haemodialysis patients were studied; 11 ± 6 measurements were performed per patient. Nine patients reached DW(cBIS) (DW(cBIS) group), while 12 patients remained fluid-overloaded (non-DW(cBIS) group). Change in wECV as measured by wBIS accounted for 46 ± 23% in DW(cBIS) group, which was higher than in non-DW(cBIS) group (33 ± 48%, P &amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt; 0.05) of actual weight loss at the end of study. In both groups the wECV/TBW ratio did not change significantly between baseline and study end. Mean predicted NHW(WBM) at baseline was 3.55 ± 1.6 kg higher than DW(cBIS) . The difference in DW(cBIS) and NHW(WBM) was 1.97 ± 1.0 kg at study end. WBM could be useful to predict a target range of normal hydration weight particularly for patients with substantial fluid overload. The cBIS provides an accurate reference for the estimation of DW so that combined use of cBIS and WBM is promising and warrants further studies.
The Phase Angle and Mass Body Cell as Markers of Nutritional Status in Hemodialysis Patients
Journal of Renal Nutrition, 2010
Objective: Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a fast, noninvasive method for assessing body composition, and its role in the evaluation of nutritional status in haemodialysis (HD) has been studied. This study aimed to compare BIA parameters to clinical, biochemical, and anthropometric markers of nutrition in HD patients, such as subjective global assessment modified for renal disease (SGA-1), serum albumin, body mass index (BMI), percent of standard body weight (%SBW), deviation of triceps skinfold thickness (TSF), mid-arm circumference (MAC), midarm muscle circumference (MAMC) from the standard value (50th percentile), anthropometry-derived fat (FM-A), and fat-free mass (FFM-A).
Multifrequency bioimpedance in assessment of dry weight in haemodialysis
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 1996
The use of multifrequency bioimpedance (MFB) for determination of dry weight (DW) in haemodialysis (HD) patients was evaluated in three studies. In Study 1, the fluid state [total body water (TBW) and extracellular volume (ECV)] was measured by MFB in 82 normotensive patients, 41 hypertensive patients and in 30 healthy subjects. TBW and ECV were expressed as per cent of body weight (BW). In Study 2, DW of five hypertensive HD patients was gradually decreased during 3 months and ECV (MFB) and blood pressure (48 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring) were measured at the beginning and end of study. In Study 3, we measured the fluid status repeatedly by MFB and the diameter of the inferior vena cava (DIVC) by ultrasound before, during and 2 h post-HD.

Introduction: Multi-frequency bio-impedance analysis (BIA) accurately evaluates body composition. Objective: To assess nutritional status and its relationship with body mass index (BMI) or with BIA-obtained phase angle in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis. Method: BMI, BIA and dialysis malnutrition score (DMS) were assessed in 99 patients on hemodialysis (43.6 ± 17.2 years of age, 58.8% males). Multivariate linear regression analysis was used to determine BMI and phase angle independent associations with DMS. Results: Malnutrition risk (DMS > 13) showed a gradual increase among patients with normal BMI and phase angle (44.4%), low BMI (45.8%), low phase angle (64.0%), and in those with both parameters at abnormal ranges (68.0%). The phase angle was the only variable that was independently associated with patient nutritional status (standardized coefficient beta −0.372, p < 0.001), accounting for 13.8% of DMS variation. Conclusion: Phase angle is inversely and independently associated with malnutrition risk in patients with ESRD, which suggests that BIA-assessed body composition might be better than BMI in the clinical assessment of patients with ESRD.

This study explored divergence (error) between ultrafiltration volumes (UFV) and intradialytic changes in extracellular volume (ΔECV) in hemodialysis (HD) patients measured by whole body (wBIS) and sum of segmental bioimpedance spectroscopy (sBIS). The primary aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of different ultrafiltration rates (UFR) on error of estimation of ΔECV by changes in their distribution in body segments (arm, trunk, and leg). Forty-four HD patients (26 men, age 63.5 ± 14.3 yr) were studied twice in the same week following high and low UFR treatments. ΔECV and distributions (segmental ΔECV/∑segmental ΔECV, %) in arm, trunk, and leg were measured. ΔECV by wBIS underestimated UFV (0.58 ± 0.43 in high vs. 0.36 ± 0.5 liters at low UFR; P < 0.001, respectively); however, using sBIS no significant difference between UFV and ΔECV was present. Divergence using wBIS but not sBIS correlated positively with UFR. ΔECV distribution in trunk and leg at high UFR (44.1 ± 8.3, ...
