About this item

by Stefano Mancin (Author)

Nutrition plays an important role in all phases of chronic renal failure and continues to have it even after the start of dialysis treatment.Dialysis alone would not be sufficient to be able to correct some symptoms of uremia, so the replacement therapy of renal function is completed with adequate drug therapy and a correct diet.The dietary intervention aims to limit the intake of some specific nutrients, to avoid their accumulation, and at the same time to satisfy energy and nutritional requirements.Nutrition also plays a fundamental role in improving the quality of life of the person suffering from chronic renal failure, allowing to limit complications and reduce the risk of malnutrition.
