Scientific titleImprovement of nutritional state by intradialytical parenteral nutrition in children treated with haemodialysis: A prospective, randomised, controlled, crossover trial
Study acronymIDPN (Comparación de la mejoría nutricional por alimentación enteral vs. parenteral intradialítica en niños en programa de hemodiálisis)
Study objectivesIntradialytic parenteral nutrition (IDPN) is an effective intervention to improve the nutritional state of children treated with haemodialysis
Ethics approval(s)The local research ethics committee (Comisión de Etica Hospital Infantil de México Federico Gómez) approved on 29th of February 2008 (ref: HIM/2007/059)
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedMalnutrition/Haemodialysis pediatric patients
InterventionMalnourished children undergoing haemodialysis treatment (aged 6-17 years) will be included in the study. None will be receiving growth hormone. Each patient will receive a three month course of either Treatment A or Treatment B. For ethical reasons there is no washout period and patients will be switched to another three months of either Treatment A or B in order to complete the other arm of the crossover design.
1. Treatment A: Dietary supplementation providing a third daily calorie intake three times per week.
2. Treatment B. A three months course of intradialytical parenteral nutrition in every haemodialysis session (three times per week). The IDPN will provide a third of the required daily calorie intake, amino acids and lipids, will be adjusted by age and sex.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measure(s)

Improvement in ABN score (anthropometry-bioimpedance analysis-nutrition) at 3 and 6 months

1. improvement in inflammation biomarkers (IL-6, TNF alpha)
1. Peripheral blood gene expression of IL6, TNF alpha, IFN gamma, 18s-rRNA at baseline, 3 and 6 months
