Trial summary

Excess dietary sodium can lead to poor outcomes, such as hypertension, edema and increased risk for cardiovascular diseases. These complications are associated with end stage renal disease (ESRD) progression and mortality in renal patients. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effects of Dietary Sodium Restriction in Hemodialysis Patients: Randomized Clinical Trial

Excess dietary sodium can lead to poor outcomes, such as hypertension, edema and increased risk for cardiovascular diseases. These complications are associated with end stage renal disease (ESRD) progression and mortality in renal patients. This study aims to evaluate the effects of nutritional counseling restricting dietary sodium and its relation to clinical and diet factors, nutritional knowledge and quality of life in hemodialysis patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Sodium intake

    Sodium intake will be evaluated by food record and a food frequency questionnaire.

    Measured: Baseline, 30, 90, 180 and 360 days

  2. Quality of life

    Quality of life will be evaluated by the Brazilian Portuguese version of the Kidney Disease and Quality-of-Life Short-Form (KDQOL-SF) questionnaire.

    Measured: Baseline, 180 and 360 days.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Interdialytic weight gain

    Will be considered the amount of weight gain between 2 dialysis sessions.

    Measured: Baseline, 30, 90, 180 and 360 days.
