    This paper uses the Karnofsky scale for measuring nutritional status in patients under hemodialysis treatment of the renal unit Manadiálisis SA also takes into account other parameters such as anthropometric (IMC, CB, PCT and PMB) and results of laboratory tests, such as albumin, urea, creatinine, cholesterol, triglycerides, sodium potassium and phosphorus among others the purpose of all this is to know more precisely the nutritional health of the affected population. This is largely because they are a very vulnerable group to suffer all kinds of deficiency diseases such as protein energy malnutrition and those caused by excessive intake of foods rich in carbohydrates fats that lead to pre-obesity and overweight , too runs the risk of excessive accumulation of electrolytes whose elevation endanger your health and good quality. The research was purposeful diagnostic type , as the universe is studied patients undergoing hemodialysis during the months of January to July 2013 , in which techniques were used surveys and laboratory test results . Obtained results it was evident that the quality of life of the sample indicates that 30 % was in the normal range or quality of life in the month of January while in June increased 42 % presenting shown improvement relative to January. A 41 % presented mild and pre-obesity in the month of January and 36% in June. A large percentage of the sample population present regular range but acceptable for people undergoing hemodialysis and decreased relative to January. Urea levels were consistent with the pathology between January and June with a 89 % and 95 %, respectively, indicating that patients had an adequate protein intake . Albumin in patients of January by 60% was within the normal range 25% lower. Creatinine levels were normal for presenting pathology 89% in January and 95 % in June. Indicating adequate protein intake . Potassium levels were elevated in the months of January and June with 89 and 95 % . Indicating a tendency to hyperkalemia . Phosphorus had a percentage of 80 % in January and 70 % in June phosphorus results . Also evidence that a significant percentage consumes a considerable amount of liquid which exposes them to suffer from edema of lungs and limbs.
