Changes in serum albumin and other nutritional markers when using sucroferric oxyhydroxide as phosphorus binder among hemodialysis patients: a historical cohort study

Abstract: Background Elevated serum phosphorus concentrations are common among maintenance hemodialysis patients. Protein is a major source of dietary phosphate, but restriction of protein intake can result in hypoalbuminemia and protein-energy wasting. We hypothesized that sucroferric oxyhydroxide (SO), a potent phosphate binder with a low pill burden, may reduce serum phosphorus levels in hemodialysis patients with hypoalbuminemia without adversely impacting albumin levels or dietary intake of protein.Methods We retro… Show more
