ABSTRACT: Objectives
Studies suggest that maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients report dietary energy intakes (EIs) that are lower than what is actually ingested. Data supporting this conclusion have several important limitations. The present study introduces a novel approach of assessing underreporting of EI in MHD patients.Design
Comparisons of EI of free-living MHD patients determined from food records to their measured energy needs.Setting
Metabolic research ward.Subjects
Thirteen clinically stable MHD patients with unchanging weights whose EI was assessed by dietitian interview-assisted 3-day food records.Intervention
EI was compared with (1) patients' resting energy expenditure (REE), measured by indirect calorimetry, and estimated total energy expendi
