Chronic kidney disease (CKD) results from the partial or total loss of kidney excretory function and consequently requires conservative treatment, dialysis or kidney transplantation. Once established, CKD can cause numerous compromises to patients' health and quality of life (QoL). QoL is represented by a wide range of dimensions involving physical, psychological, social and environmental aspects, among others. It can be assessed, making it possible to learn about the effectiveness of treatments and interventions carried out by health professionals, as well as the impact of a disease on the lives of those affected and their families.
