Abstract:
Protein malnutrition is a well-described complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD), a standard mode of treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and contributes to morbidity, treatment failure, and mortality. To assess the usefulness of WeChat-based education for ensuring optimal protein intake through the consumption of egg white protein, 140 young and middle-aged patients undergoing PD are assigned to either the intervention group or the control group. The results show that reinforcing comprehensive PD education using WeChat can improve nutritional parameters, clinical parameters, and quality of life.
