Extracellular mass to body cell mass ratio as a potential index of wasting and fluid overload in hemodialysis patients. A case-control study.
Date:
Authors:
Ruperto Mar Francisco J. Sánchez-Muniz and Guillermina Barril.
Journal:
Clinical Nutrition
Topic:
The ECW/BCM ratio is a useful prognostic indicator for the management of dialysis patients and allows clinicians to set up treatment correctly and monitor their nutritional status. An ECW/BCM ratio >1.20 is an indicator of wasting and fluid overload.

Basso F. · Berdin G., Virzì G.M., Mason G. Piccinni P. Day S. Cruz D.N Wjewodzka M. Giuliani A. Brendolan A., Ronco C.
Journal:
Blood purification
Topic:
Patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) frequently present fluid overload from day 2 of observation in the ICU. The study highlights a significant correlation between mortality and state of hyperhydration evaluated with BIVA analysis.
