This is a descriptive cross-sectional hospital-based study conducted during the period from October to December 2009 at Noora Children Center for Dialysis and Renal Transplant at Soba University Hospital, and Dr. Salma Nephrology Center for Dialysis and Transplant, Khartoum, Sudan.
The objectives were to study the health-Related Quality of Life (HRQol) in children on Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) and to correlate the effect of RRT in improving the Quality of Life (QoL).
The study included 77 children with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) and their families. The majority of children 45 (58.4%) were at the age group 13 – 16 years. 38 (49.4%) were on Hemodialysis (HD), 20 (26%) were on Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) and 19 (24.6%) had renal transplantation. Male to female ratio was 1.3:1.
Results: ESRD had negative effect on children’s physical, psychological and social domains of QoL. Children on HD and PD had significant lower scores in all domains of QoL compared to transplanted children.
