Since 2010, the prevalence of end-stage renal disease has doubled in South Korea, which has the sixth-highest incidence worldwide. Although most kidney disease patients undergo dialysis to attenuate disease-related symptoms and prolong their lives, the implications of dialysis on their lives, together with the role played by patients' significant others, remain underexplored. Similarly, existing research has not considered both patients with hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. Methods: In this meta-synthesis, seven electronic databases (PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, PsycINFO, DBpia, KISS, and RISS) were searched for the terms "dialysis" and "qualitative." Thirty qualitative studies were selected for examination. Results: The overriding theme observed in the studies was "I do not have much time left."--navigating the dual realities of one's limited existence, while other key themes were: (1) the inevitable experience of the troubles of dialysis, (2) life is extended, but deteriorating in every aspect, (3) accepting dialysis with a positive outlook for life, and (4) essential support experienced in an exhausting life. Conclusion: These findings are important for the design and delivery of practical and tailored nursing interventions to help patients overcome the various challenges related to dialysis treatment, and improve their quality of life. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research systematic review tables/charts meta synthesis Journal Article ougenre: Article language: Korean refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
