Tag: Peritoneal dialysis diet

Approximately half of all dialysis patients have suboptimal nutritional intake, making dietary management critical. The best diet for kidney dialysis patients is a personalized plan that manages protein, fluid, and mineral intake based on individual needs.

While both peritoneal dialysis (PD) and haemodialysis (HD) treat end-stage renal disease, a key distinction lies in their dietary requirements. A patient's nutrition plan is heavily influenced by their specific dialysis modality and the continuous vs. intermittent nature of the treatment.
