Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a chronic health problem whose prevalence is increasing. Nutrition and nutrition-related factors, one of the modifiable risk factors for CKD, are of primary importance. The key to planning optimal nutritional therapy is accurately determining energy requirements and total energy expenditure. Many health problems can accompany CKD, such as protein-energy malnutrition, sarcopenia, etc, and increase the mortality rate. This study aims to present the specific factors affecting energy expenditure specific to CKD in line with the current literature, to discuss the methods used to determine energy expenditure, and to examine these methods according to groups receiving and not receiving renal replacement therapy (hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, and renal transplantation).
