The p-value in a statistical test between hemodialysis adequacy and nutritional status was measured by the LLA money shows the value of p = 0,946 where p > 0,05 . The statistical test on the relationship between the adequacy of hemodialysis at risk of malnutrition were assessed by questionnaire SNST shows the value of p = 0,027 where p < 0,05.
