Resumo

Chronic kidney disease is a world wide public health challenge since patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have to live on haemodialysis(HD) for the rest of their lives unless a kidney donor and a successful kidney transplantation is carried out.Patients on HD have increased mortality compared with the general population.Several factors can play a negative role and increase risk of mortality among HD patients, particularly cardiovascular diseases. Animportant non cardiovascular risk factor of mortality among HD patients is malnutrition.Malnutrition in HD patients is due to restrictive food recommendations, poor appetite, and drug-related factors.Protein energy wasting (PEW) are common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially in patients on dialysis either on haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.One of the most important factors affecting the quality of life of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients is nutrition. Prevention of malnutrition increases patientsquality and length of life
