Summary

This randomized controlled trial will focus on the effects of early oral nutritional supplementation on immune function in elderly patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 on maintenance hemodialysis. The purpose of this study is to determine whether early oral nutritional supplementation can improve immune function and clinical outcomes.

Detailed description

COVID-19 is in the midst of a global pandemic. Elderly patients are often susceptible and at high risk. Elderly patients on maintenance hemodialysis are often accompanied by a variety of complications, malnutrition is a common complication with an incidence of 23-73%. Due to a variety of risk factors, COVID-19 infection tends to develop into severe disease, and it takes longer for nucleic acid to turn negative. This randomized controlled trial will focus on the effects of early oral nutritional supplementation on immune function in elderly patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 on maintenance hemodialysis. The purpose of this study is to determine whether early oral nutritional supplementation can improve immune function and clinical outcomes.
