Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) must manage not only the demands of dialysis and comorbid conditions but also associated symptoms and acute life-threatening events that contribute to functional limitations and increased risk of mortality. Yet little is known about the trajectories of quality of life dimensions in patients with ESKD when they experience acute life-threatening episodes, to guide palliative care for this population. In this prospective, descriptive study, we will identify trajectories of symptoms, physical functioning, psychosocial needs, and emotional and spiritual well-being in 200 patients with ESKD who are at a high risk of experiencing acute life-threatening events and mortality within 12 months.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* aged 18 years or older;
* receiving either Hemodialysis or Peritoneal dialysis

Exclusion Criteria

* Patients who are enrolled in hospice or too sick to participate in questionnaire completion will not be eligible.
* Kidney transplant candidates will be excluded because their illness trajectories after transplant are likely to differ.
