Optimizing Nutrition in Adult Hemodialysis – Part I: Navigating Nutritional Hurdles in Hemodialysis Care Webinar

This presentation will focus on the key nutritional concerns for adults with CKD stage 5D receiving maintenance hemodialysis, including protein-energy wasting (PEW), fluid and electrolyte imbalances, and nutrient deficiencies. It will explore the complex relationship between PEW, cardiovascular disease, inflammation, and mortality, highlighting the impact of these factors on patient outcomes. Additionally, the pathophysiology and management of CKD-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) will be reviewed, including current therapeutic approaches to control phosphate, calcium, and vitamin D levels to improve patient care.
