Chronic kidney disease (CKD) refers to the state in which the kidney is damaged and is not able to function. It is one of the most common disease conditions at present as the cases are on the rise, the two main risk factors being Diabetes and Hypertension. For patients with End Stage Renal Disease (CKD 4 & 5), there are various types of Renal Replacement Therapy available but Hemodialysis (HD) appears to be the most common treatment modality preferred by patients. Hemodialysis is not a curative treatment for CKD but a therapy that needs to be regularly carried out throughout the patient’s lifetime until a renal transplant is done. While Hemodialysis is a necessity to prolong life for many patients suffering from CKD, it also causes various complications. Dialysis complications can be physical, social, and psychological issues. Among the Physical complications, the most common ones include infection, cardiovascular events, ischemic heart disease, stroke, hypotension, fluid overload, pericarditis, respiratory edema, gastrointestinal complications like nausea, vomiting, neuromuscular manifestations, anemia, metabolic bone disease, itching, sleep disturbance, and aching [1]. As a Nurse, identification of these complications is very crucial, as providing timely and necessary intervention to the various complications can improve the overall quality of the patient’s life.
