Abstract
Introduction: The KDQOL-SF (Kidney Disease Quality of Life Short Form) is a tool for assessing the quality of life of patients with kidney disease that examines areas more specific to CRFT. Objective: To assess the degree of satisfaction with physical and mental health among chronic dialysis patients and to determine the factors influencing it. Methodology: This was a prospective cross-sectional study conducted at the Point G University Hospital among chronic dialysis patients over a period of three months. Results: The ratio was 1.22 in favor of men. The average age was 45.3 years, with extremes of 19 and 71 years. The initial nephropathy was nephroangiosclerosis in 46% of cases. The average duration of dialysis for our patients was 36.4 months +/− 15.4 months, with extremes of 10 months and 192 months. KDQOL dissatisfaction rates concerned the dimensions of sleep (89%), pruritus (87%), sex life (86%), vascular access problems (76%), and walking ability (74%). Satisfaction rates concerned the following dimensions: assistance from paramedical staff (79%), assistance from spouse (79%), assistance from medical staff (78%), and assistance from employer (86%). Overall satisfaction on a scale of 0 to 10 was mostly rated 5, 6, and 7, with 34%, 33%, and 17% of cases, respectively.
