Effects of Intradialytic Nutrition on Dialysis Adequacy and Fatigue
Sponsor: Mersin University
Summary
This randomized, two-period, two-sequence crossover trial aims to evaluate the effects of intradialytic nutrition on dialysis adequacy, intradialytic hemodynamic parameters, and fatigue in adults receiving maintenance hemodialysis. Participants will receive standardized intradialytic nutrition during one study period and no food intake during the other period, with each participant serving as their own control. Dialysis adequacy will be assessed using the urea reduction ratio (URR) and single-pool Kt/V (spKt/V), while fatigue will be evaluated using the Piper Fatigue Scale. Intradialytic blood pressure and other clinical parameters will also be monitored throughout the study. The findings are expected to provide evidence regarding the safety and clinical effects of intradialytic nutrition and to support individualized nutritional management strategies for patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis.

Interventions
Standardized Intradialytic Nutrition
Participants received a standardized renal meal approximately 1.5 hours after the start of each hemodialysis session. The meal provided approximately 450 kcal and 20 g of protein and was designed according to renal dietary recommendations with low potassium and phosphorus content. Participants were instructed to consume the entire meal and not to consume any additional food during the dialysis session.
