Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effects of continuous quality improvement (CQI) management on nutritional status,renal function progression,and compliance of low protein diet in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods Totally 115 CKD patients who were regularly followed up in CKD clinic services were recruited in this study.Plan,Do,Check,and Act (PDCA) method was adopted to manage the dietary of these patients for 12 months.The clinical indicators and diet compliance before and after receiving CQI management were compared.Results After receiving the CQI management,the nutritional status of patients was well maintained;meanwhile,the average hand strength and the hemoglobin,serum albumin,total cholesterol,and triglyceride levels showed no significant changes (all P ＞ 0.05).Subjective feelings of patients were improved.The modified Subjective Global Assessment of Nutrition (mSGA) score was decreased from 7.0 (7.0,8.0) to 7.0 (7.0,7.0) (P =0.000).The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated by formula of modified MDRD was decreased from (40.74 ± 14.49) to (37.94 ± 16.86) ml/(min · 1.73 m2) (P =0.000),and the average descended speed was (2.81 ±7.42) ml/(min · 1.73 m2) per year.The creatinine clearance rate had no statistical difference between pre-and post management (P =0.910),and the average descended speed was (0.19 ± 17.01) ml/min per year.The daily protein intake (DPI) and protein equivalent of nitrogen appearance rate (PNA) were both significandy descended:DPI/kg decreased from (0.79 ± 0.27) to (0.64 ± 0.15) g/ (24 h · kg) (P =0.000),and PNA/kg dropped from (1.02 ± 0.32) to (0.82 ± 0.24) g/ (24 h · kg) (P =0.000).The scores of awareness and compliance of patients on low protein diet were significantly increased after CQI management (P =0.000).Conculsion Applying CQI on dietary and nutrition management in CKD patients can maintain the good nutritional status and improve the compliance of low protein diet.
