Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Comparing change in serum Bicarbonate level immediately before dialysis (IPD) and one day prior to dialysis (DPD) in the study groups.Timepoint: 0 and 3 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Comparing change in nutritional status (serum albumin level, pre albumin, cholesterol, bioimpedance and Subjective Global Assessment (SGA)) in study groups. Timepoint: 0 and 3 months;Change in bone turnover bio markers b-ALP, s-PINP and TRAP-5B in two study groupsTimepoint: 0 and 3 months;To assess change in muscle strength and function (Handgrip strength and short physical performance battery: Gait speed, sit to stand test and static balance test) among two study groupsTimepoint: 0 and 3 months
