ABSTRACT
SUMMARY BACKGROUND One of the most important factors affecting the quality of life of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients is nutrition. Prevention of malnutrition increases patients' quality and length of life. In this study, we aimed to determine the frequency of malnutrition, quality of life, and the relationship between them in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). METHOD The study was conducted with a total of 60 CKD patients including 50 haemodialysis patients and 10 peritoneal dialysis patients. Patients' data associated with socio-demographics, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, triceps skin-fold thickness (TSFT), pre-dialysis systolic and diastolic blood pressure, Kt/V and urea reduction ratio (URR) values, laboratory parameters, Mini-Nutritional Assessment-Short Form (MNA-SF) and European Quality of Life 5-Dimensions (EQ5D) scale were recorded. FINDINGS Of the total 60 patients; 27 were male (45%), 33 were female (55%), 83.3% were receiving haemodialysis treatment (HD), and 16.7% were receiving peritoneal dialysis treatment (PD). The mean MNA-SF score was 10.4 ± 2.8 in the HD group and 10.5 ± 2.9 in the PD group; there was no difference between the scores of the HD and PD groups. The mean EQ5D score was 0.60 ± 0.29 in the HD group and 0.68 ± 0.33 in the PD group, no significant difference was found between the HD group and the PD group. The quality of life was found lower in malnourished group (p=0.001). CONCLUSION The quality of life needs to be increased by early diagnosis and treatment of malnutrition in patients at risk.
RESUMO
RESUMO INTRODUÇÃO O estado nutricional é um dos principais determinantes da qualidade de vida de pacientes com doença renal crônica (DRC) e a prevenção da desnutrição aumenta o tempo e a qualidade de vida nessa população. O objetivo do presente estudo foi determinar a prevalência de desnutrição, a qualidade de vida e a inter-relação entre esses fatores em pacientes com DRC em terapia dialítica. MÉTODOS Incluímos 60 pacientes com DRC estágio 5 sob terapia dialítica (50 pacientes em hemodiálise [HD] e 10 em diálise peritoneal [DP]). Os pacientes foram analisados com relação aos seus dados sociodemográficos, índice de massa corporal (IMC), circunferência abdominal, dobra cutânea triciptal, pressão arterial sistólica e diastólica pré-diálise, Kt/V e índice de remoção de ureia, parâmetros laboratoriais, miniavaliação nutricional (MNA) e questionário EuroQol-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D). RESULTADOS Do total de pacientes, havia 27 homens (45%) e 33 mulheres (55%), 83,3% em HD e 16,7% em DP. O MNA médio foi 10,4 ± 2,8 nos pacientes em HD e 10,5 ± 2,9 naqueles em DP, não havendo diferença significativa entre os grupos. O EQ-5D médio foi 0,60 ± 0,29 nos pacientes em HD e 0,68 ± 0,33 naqueles em DP, não havendo diferença estatisticamente significativa entre os grupos. A qualidade de vida foi pior nos pacientes desnutridos (p=0,001). CONCLUSÃO O diagnóstico e o tratamento precoce da desnutrição são necessários para melhorar a qualidade de vida dessa população.
