Tailored Medical Nutrition Therapy Meal Delivery for the Vulnerable Food Insecure Elderly Patients With End Stage Kidney Disease on Haemodialysis: A Feasibility Pilot Study
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 Dec 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The pilot intervention study is designed to evaluate the feasibility of implementing a tailored medical nutrition therapy (MNT) meal-delivery for 25 elderly, low-income food insecure patients with end-stage kidney disease undergoing maintenance hemodialysis at dialysis centers. Following comprehensive baseline assessments, participants will first maintain their usual dietary patterns for a 4-week control period to establish baseline nutritional and clinical parameters. This will be followed by a 4-week intervention period during which participants will receive individually tailored MNT meals designed to meet their renal-specific nutritional requirements, including energy, protein, potassium, phosphate and sodium intake. Weekly monitoring during dialysis sessions will include assessment of adherence, dietary intake, and clinical tolerance, providing detailed insights into the feasibility, safety, and potential clinical impact of the tailored nutrition intervention in this vulnerable population.
