Quality of life (QOL) among chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients in Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (HUSM)

CKD leads to decreased QoL by increasing the risk of death during the progression of its pathogenesis. However, many factors can be improved to support QOL. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 73 participants. A self-administered questionnaire was given to the participants that fit the inclu...

The level of QoL among CKD patients showed moderate in all domains. Montioring QoL is an important indicator to identify impact of CKD on PCS, MCS and KDCS domains.
