Application of DSM-BIA in dry weight assessment in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Dry weight assessment (DWA) is an important part of dialysis and fluid management in patients receiving renal replacement therapy. With the development of bioimpedance analysis (BIA), the development of the direct segmental multi-frequency BIA (DSM-BIA) has provided a more convenient measure for DWA of dialysis patients, but its accuracy remains unclear. This study was designed to evaluate the application of DSM-BIA in DWA of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients.

Design

This is a cross-sectional study. Using the conventional BIA as a reference, we examined the accuracy of the DSM-BIA technique for assessing dry weight in CAPD patients and analyzed the potential factors influencing their fluid volume status.
