Abstract:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global public health problem. All health care professionals need to
be knowledgeable and competent in nutrition as it applies to health promotion, prevention and treatment of acute
and chronic diseases. Nutrition intervention is an important component in optimizing diet among CKD patients.
However, there is limited information on the nutrition knowledge on management of CKD among healthcare workers
in Dar es Salaam Tanzania. This study assessed nutrition knowledge, attitudes and current practices of healthcare
workers in management of patients with CKD in selected hospitals.
