Overview
Brief Summary
Excess dietary sodium can lead to poor outcomes, such as hypertension, edema and increased risk for cardiovascular diseases. These complications are associated with end stage renal disease (ESRD) progression and mortality in renal patients. This study aims to evaluate the effects of nutritional counseling restricting dietary sodium and its relation to clinical and diet factors, nutritional knowledge and quality of life in hemodialysis patients.
