Abstract

Nutritional assessment is very important in kidney patients (whether they are on a dialysis programme or not), because undernourishment not only determines their morbimortality, but it also has a great effect on these people's quality of life. We lend our experience to this assessment with the novelty of systematically including Bioimpedance as another (useful and cheap) instrument for being able to get close to the knowledge of these patients who are so haemodynamically unstable.

No se recomienda el uso de la BIA sistemáticamente en hemodiá-lisis porque puede producir estimaciones absurdas de los comparti-mentos en los pacientes con hidratación anómala, y ello es inevitable en estos pacientes, por lo que creemos que debe ser un método más y no el único para proceder a su valoración57.
