Renal Insufficiency, Chronic
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is the evaluation of a bioimpedance method for determination of dry weight in dialysis patients. Additionally normal tissue hydration in non-Dialysis patients is investigated in healthy subjects and patients with chronic kidney disease in stages K/DIGO I-IV
