Abstract

Introduction: Involving people with advanced chronic kidney disease in decision-making about their treatment promotes their autonomy and guarantees their free choice of treatment. This educational process culminates in selecting a treatment modality that should be consistent with their values, preferences, and lifestyle. However, little is known about their satisfaction with their choice once treatment has begun.


Objective: To determine the degree of satisfaction of the renal patient with the renal replacement therapy chosen.
Material and Method: A quantitative, cross-sectional, descriptive observational study was conducted in the Dialysis Unit of the Complejo Asistencial Universitario de León in 2024. We included chronic dialysis patients who had visited the Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease Unit for information on treatment options and had been on treatment for more than one month. Demographic and clinical variables and satisfaction with the choice were studied.


Results: Fifty-eight patients were studied. 67.24% were men. Mean age 67.1±13.98 years and median 69.5 years. The mean time on treatment was 30.64±31.67 months, 74.14% were on haemodialysis, and 98.3% were satisfied with their choice. We found no statistically significant differences in patient satisfaction between the dialysis options (p=0.551).


Conclusions: The percentage of regret was low, only 1.7%. Assessing patient satisfaction with their dialysis treatment can help to verify whether they are satisfied and/or wish to change the modality.
