Abstract

Chronic kidney disease is a health problem worldwide; there are clinical guidelines for its management. However, several clinical protocols do not consider some aspects related to the patient and the family environment. Analyzing these data, the objective of this research was to implement a new method that can contribute to a better quality of life for dialyzed patients using a modification of the Betty Neuman model. The results obtained showed that after the intervention increased from 50% to 72.9% of dialyzed patients that indicate their health status has been “Good”. In conclusion, the implementation of this method achieved a certain number of factors involved in the quality of life in dialyzed patients.
