Results: The 75.5% participants found to have depression. Depression was found statistically significant across socioeconomic status (p value 0.04) and other medical comorbidities (p value 0.04). Variables found to be significantly associated with total quality of life in multiple linear regression analysis were caste (p value 0.03), socioeconomic status (p value 0.009) and depression (p value 0.001). Conclusions: Depression and reduced quality of life is very common among chronic kidney patients. Low socioeconomic status and comorbid medical conditions were associated with depression and caste, low socioeconomic status and depression were associated with low quality of life.

Changing lifestyle or habits means changing one’s perspective and changing their paradigm. The arrangement of good behavior through the provision of healthy lifestyle modules to patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy should be supported with high motivation. The study aims to find out the effect of providing healthy lifestyle modules and motivation to improve the quality of life of patients. This study is an experimental quasi-research with a 2x2 factorial design involving a sample of 30 chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy at Rumah Sakit Khusus Ginjal Rasyida Medan, North Sumatra Indonesia. Through the analysis of multiple linear regression analysis, the results showed a significant influence between the provision of healthy lifestyle modules on improving quality of life. Other findings suggest differences in quality of life between patients with high motivation levels and low-motivated patients. This study proposes further studies to examine the effectiveness of modules and improve quality of life against different patient cultural backgrounds.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined as a progressive disease that causes renal failure and requires extended and long-term therapies. CKD patients need to choose one of these therapies to improve their quality of life. This study aims to investigate differences in the quality of life of chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).Design and Methods: The study design used is similar to the cross-sectional design. Therefore, in this study observations were carried out, a EQ_5D life quality questionnaire sheet was administered to respondents, and a purposive sampling method was used. The total number of respondents was 250 and consisted of 125 hemodialysis and CAPD patients each.Results: The results obtained using the Mann Whitney method was a p-value (0.515)> α (0.05). These results also included five components, namely the ability to move/walk to an acceptable degree, adequate self-care, performance of usual activities, minimal amount of pain/discomfort during hemodialysis and CAPD, and acceptable levels of anxiety/sadness.Conclusions: This research concludes that there is no difference in the quality of life between CKD patients  undergoing hemodialysis and CAPD.

Background : The inability of CKD patients to manage thirst can lead to overhydration which affects an increase in kidney workload and cause complications thereby reducing quality of life. Literature review needs to be done on various ways to reduce thirst that can be done in CKD patients. Method : Searching for articles was conducted on a population of CKD on HD patients, the outcome was a decrease in the intensity of thirst. Searches were carried out using EBSCO, Sciencedirect, Pubmed, as well as Google Shoolar, restricted articles from 2009-2019 and experimental studies. Results : Interventions carried out to reduce the thirst of CKD patients included chewing ice cubes, chewing gum, and gargling with mouthwash with p value <0.005. Conclusion : All the interventions from the literature review in the form of chewing ice cubes, chewing gum, and gargling with mouthwash can be used to reduce thirst in patients with CKD.
