Growth of children during maintenance hemodialysis has been reported to be uniformly poor, with a mean annual loss of 0.4 to 0.8 SD in height. We adopted an intensive program of closely monitored energy and protein intake with dialysis urea clearances exceeding conventional recommendations. Twelve prepubertal or early pubertal children (aged 7 months to 14 years) were monitored for an average of 2.2 years (range 4 to 81 months) while receiving maintenance hemodialysis. These children received an average of 90.6% and 155.9% of their recommended energy and protein nutritional intake, respectively. With a prescribed urea clearance of 5 mL/kg/min, we achieved a mean single treatment urea clearance normalized for total body water of 2.00, a urea reduction ratio of 84.7%, and an average time of hemodialysis of 14.8 h/wk, all well beyond current guidelines. Over the course of dialysis treatment, the improvement in height SD score was+0.31 SD/y (+0.32 excluding the 2 children treated with recombinant human growth hormone). Normal growth was achieved without overt obesity and was associated with normal pubertal growth spurt. These findings suggest that the combination of increased dialysis and adequate nutrition can promote normal growth in children treated with long-term hemodialysis.
