Reliability of Mini Nutritional Assessment in Hemodialysis Compared With Subjective Global Assessment

Journal of Renal Nutrition, 2006
Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) is common in hemodialysis patients. Subjective Global Assesment (SGA) and Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) are two tools for monitoring PEM. Our aim was to determine reliability of MNA in detecting malnutrition in hemodialysis patients in comparison with SGA.
