Pos-744 quality of life in patients with chronic kidney disease managed with or without dialysis

The prevalence of end stage kidney disease (ESKD) increases with age. Decisions regarding dialysis are now becoming increasingly relevant in older populations. Emerging research suggests many patients with ESKD prioritise patient-centred outcomes, such as quality of life (QOL) and maintenance of independence, rather than length of life. Therefore, there is a need to focus on QOL considerations for older patients with ESKD undergoing all treatment modalities, including conservative, non-dialysis, management (CKM).
