Abstract

Background: Chronic diseases such as kidney failure can impact patients' quality of life. Renal replacement methods such as hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are important in these cases.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the quality of life of Iranian hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients.
Methods: The study took place between April and September 2021 and involved 84 hemodialysis and 31 peritoneal dialysis patients at a teaching hospital in Kerman, Iran. The standard KDQOL-SFTM questionnaire, consisting of 78 questions, was used to gather data and assess general and specific aspects of patients' quality of life. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 18 statistical software.
Results: The mean age of peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis patients was 52.1±18.8 and 56.8±15.6 years, respectively. A larger proportion of hemodialysis patients were male compared to peritoneal dialysis patients. In most dimensions, peritoneal dialysis patients had better quality-of-life scores than hemodialysis patients. The specific dimension with the largest difference between the two groups was the effect of kidney disease, with peritoneal dialysis patients scoring 69.97±24.46 and hemodialysis patients scoring 54.46±23.55 (P≤0.05). The largest difference in the general dimensions of quality of life was pain, with peritoneal patients scoring 59.52±23.55 and hemodialysis patients scoring 43.46±28.58 (P≤0.05).
Conclusion: Due to the better quality of life scores found in peritoneal dialysis patients, healthcare professionals should encourage the use of this method where appropriate.
