Energy metabolism in acute and chronic renal failure

Energy metabolism was measured by indirect calorimetry in 86 patients with various forms of renal failure and in 24 control subjects. In patients with acute renal failure with sepsis, oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, and resting energy expenditure were increased (P less than 0.05). In other groups with renal failure (acute renal failure without sepsis, chronic renal failure with conservative treatment or hemodialysis, and severe untreated azotemia) these indices were not different from those of control subjects. Urea nitrogen appearance was decreased in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing conservative treatment, in those with severe untreated azotemia, and in hemodialysis patients (P less than 0.05). We conclude that renal failure has no influence on energy expenditure as long as septicemia is absent. Reduced urea nitrogen appearance rates in chronic renal failure are due to a reduced energy and protein intake. Wasting is a consequence of decreased food intake but not of hypermetabolism in chronic renal failure.
