According to a study to be published in the Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, a biomarker indicated how too much fluid can cause 'misleading increases' in body weight for those undergoing this kind of treatment, which may include medical bracelet wearers.
Scientists warned that weight is an important what in managing end-stage kidney disease and failing to monitor this element can, in severe cases, lead to heart dysfunction or even death.
Andrew Davenport of University College London pointed out that previous studies have made the link between 'cardiac biomarkers' and cardiovascular problems, whereas the investigation only found an association between fluid levels and increased heart risk.
Although chronic kidney disease is common in the UK, less than one in ten people will ever need dialysis, although sufferers are advised by the National Kidney Foundation to get regular blood pressure checks.
