ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
This study aimed to explore the effects of fluid hydration status on ultrasound muscle measurement in hemodialysis (HD) patients.METHODS:
Ultrasound muscle examination of the right rectus femoris and bioelectrical impedance analysis measurement of the right lower limb were performed in HD patients at the periods of predialysis and postdialysis. The correlations between the changes in the corresponding ultrasound and bioelectrical impedance analysis variables were analyzed.RESULTS:
A total of 50 patients on maintenance HD were included, with mean age of 52.6 ± 13.5 years. Patients were 40% female (n = 20), and average dialysis duration was 2.62 ± 2.42 years. Compared to predialysis, the measurements of cross-sectional area, muscle thickness, echo intensity (EI), and their percentage changes all decreased significantly after the HD procedure (P < .05). The change in EI and its percentage change were significantly correlated with changes in total body water, intracellular water, and extracellular water (P < .05).CONCLUSIONS:
The HD session may have significant effects on ultrasound muscle measurement. Both the indicators of muscle quantity (cross-sectional area and muscle thickness) and quality (EI) significantly decreased after HD, which may contribute to the change in fluid hydration status and the change in fluid composition.Palavras-chave
