United States Renal Data System ^ Nutrition/malnutrition Special Study Center

该合同是为了支持美国肾脏数据系统(USRDS)的国家注册。USRDS是美国所有患有终末期肾病(ESRD)的人的纵向登记。这包括所有接受透析的人和接受肾移植的人。该数据库包括从1980年到现在的所有ESRD事件案例。有关终末期肾病患者的信息包括肾功能衰竭的日期和原因以及合并疾病。此外，后续数据包括死亡率、住院和其他发病率和残疾指标，以及支出数据。此外，USRDS还包括有关慢性肾脏疾病患者的类似信息。 终末期肾病患者的营养状况不成比例地较差。这在肾脏替代疗法开始时是正确的，随着患者接受透析治疗而恶化。

This contract is in support of the United State Renal Data System (USRDS) national registry. The USRDS is a longitudinal registry of all persons in the US who have end stage renal disease (ESRD). This includes all persons on dialysis and recipients of kidney transplantation. The data base is inclusive of all incident cases of ESRD from 1980 to the present. Information on ESRD patients include date and cause of renal failure as well as co-morbid conditions. In addition, follow-up data include mortality, hospitalization and other indicators of morbidity and disability, as well as expenditure data. In addition, the USRDS includes similar information on persons with chronic kidney disease. Persons with ESRD suffer disproportionately from poor nutritional status. This is true at the start of renal replacement therapy and worsens as people are treated with dialysis.
