Volume Estimates in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients by the Watson Equation and Bioimpedance Spectroscopy and the Impact on the Kt/V(urea) calculation
BACKGROUND: Accurate assessment of total body water (TBW) is essential for the evaluation of dialysis adequacy (Kt/V(urea)). The Watson formula, which is recommended for the calculation of TBW, was derived in healthy volunteers thereby leading to potentially inaccurate TBW estimates in maintenance h...
