One of the problems of hemodialysis patients is a quantitative assessment of fluid balance and achieve normohydratation. BCM method

(body composition monitor) allows us to noninvasively and accurately quantify the amount of body fluid, determine the optimal weight

of the patient and then conserve the „physiological“ state of hydration.

Keywords: bioimpedance, spectroscopy, fluid overload, hypertension, normohydratation
