Malnutrition is common among maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients‚ a common factor of increased death risk in these population. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of malnutrition of MHD patients at a dialysis center in a provincial hospital in the Philippines using the Dialysis Malnutrition Score (DMS)‚ a modified Subjective Global Assessment (SGA). It also aimed to analyze possible correlation between modified SGA and different techniques of nutritional assessment including food intake

the global number of patients receiving dialysis continued to grow to 2.519 million. The new patients mainly come from Asia Pacific region (excluding Japan)‚ whereas for Europe‚ America‚ Japan and other mature markets‚ since these countries have a higher proportion of patients with advanced renal failure receiving treatment‚ so they have a slower growth in the number of patients receiving dialysis. For example‚ in 2013‚ the number of patients receiving dialysis in Asia-Pacific region grew by 17.0% YoY;
