Abstract

The hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease can lead to complications such as the development of mineral and bone disorder (BMD) and soft tissue calcification. The therapeutic strategies for the control of hyperphosphatemia in patients with BMD include intake reduction of phosphorus, reduction of the intestinal absorption through chelation and removal by dialysis. The aim of this study was to develop and apply a phosphorus counting table (PCT) for the control of hyperphosphatemia in hemodialysis patients. Were selected 50 patients and they had phosphate binders suspended thirty days prior to the start of the intervention. At this period was evaluated the nutritional status (NS) by subjective global assessment, body mass index and collected dietetic information through food records (FR). After 30 days of suspension of the phosphate binder (T0), at the end of the 1st and 2nd month of intervention (T1 and T2) were collected blood samples for analysis of biochemical tests to assist in the evaluation of NS and to analyze the serum phosphorus, serum calcium, serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcium-phosphorus (CaxP) product. At T0 the patients received nutrition orientation through the PCT, which was followed by a period of two months monitored biweekly. At the end of the study was realized a new evaluation of the NS and applied new FR. There was no change in serum phosphorus levels and the CaxP product in the end of intervention. Serum calcium decreased in time T0 to T1 (p=0.05). When the sample was divided according to the adherence to PCT, the adherent group showed no change in serum phosphorus and calcium, however the CaxP product at T1 (p=0.05) and T2 (p=0.02) decreased in respecting T0. Whereas non-compliant group showed an increase at T0 to T2 for phosphorus serum (p=0.007) and CaxP product (p=0.03) and, too, increase at T1 to T2 (p=0.05 and p=0.05, respectively). The serum calcium didn\'t change in this group. PTH increased at the end of the study for the total group (p<0.001), adherent group (p=0.002) and non-compliant group (p=0.002). There was no damage to the NS and change in phosphorus intake according to FR after the intervention. This study showed that PCT assists in the control of serum phosphorus, perhaps without the use of phosphate binders or to use a reduction doses, and showed that if it was followed correctly allows the patient to make selfadjust diet.
