REE equation in dialysis

Details and patient eligibility

About

The energy and nutrition states are closely associated with dialysis patients' complications and outcomes. To reach the energy balance target, we need the accurate resting energy expenditure level of patients. Traditional equations do not focus on and applicable to peritoneal dialysis patients, so we aim to develop and validate an equation for estimating resting energy expenditure in peritoneal patients.
