Findings from quality of life research provide nurses with valuable information for planning care. However, the instrument for measuring quality of life has to be carefully selected to ensure that it assesses accurately the impact on the patients' lives. The research tools reviewed in this article (QLI-H, and KDQOLTM) are well-established instruments that have contributed significantly to understanding issues surrounding quality of life in the end-stage renal disease population. This understanding will lead to improved patient care in the field of nephrology nursing practice. |
