Summary
A reasonable and simple algorithm was used to guide the dry weight determination with Body Composition Monitor with the principle of Bioimpedance Spectroscopy (BCM-BIS) and analyze the feasibility of this algorithm and evaluate the influence of BCM-BIS-guided fluid management on the incidence of dialysis morbidities and clinical outcomes in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.
