摘要: Background: Several factors can determine the quality of life (QOL) haemodialysis patients. One these is laboratory values as proxy to dialysis adequacy. The relationship between and QOL patients debated in literature. As part a larger study on United Arab Emirates (UAE), impact were examined using two tools. Method: SF-36 Index was data from sample 130 over age 18 years. Results: Overall, findings did not yield significant either or scores. only finding positive correlation pre-dialysis serum creatinine level total scores (r=0.274, p=0.002). Conclusion: Based this study, we find compelling evidence adequacy Future work should incorporate sizes patient recruitment multiples centres truly capture variability characteristics treatment modalities.
