Nutritional Status, Nutritional Phenotypes, and Oral Nutritional Supplement Prescription Patterns Among Patients With Non-Dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease in British Columbia
Management of protein-energy wasting and undernutrition with oral nutritional supplements (ONS) has not been systematically studied in the non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD-ND) population. We aimed to describe nutritional status, identify phenotypes of patients prescribed ONS, and evaluate ONS prescription patterns among CKD-ND patients in British Columbia.
