The objective of the present study was to investigate whether InBody 2.0 might be useful in measuring the dry weight of chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients. Thirty-five HD patients (22 males and 13 females; mean age 62.6±14.0 years; mean HD duration 101.0±118.06 months) were examined. Multifrequency bioelectric impedance analysis was used to estimate the ratio of extracellular water (ECW) to total body water (TBW). The body resistance was measured at frequencies ranging from 1 kHz to 1 MHz. The impedance index was determined at a low frequency (5 kHz) and correlated closely with ECW, using sodium bromide dilution as standard comparison. The levels of serum albumin, prealbumin, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), transferrin, and human atrial natriuretic peptide (hANP) were measured by routine methods in our hospital. The ECW/TBW ratio was significantly associated with the levels of hANP (p<0.05). However, no associations between the levels of serum albumin, TC, TG, or transferrin and the ECW/TBW were observed. It appears that the body composition analyzer, InBody 2.0, may be useful for estimating the dry weight in chronic HD patients.
