First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how kidney doctors (nephrologists) think about choosing the right dialysis treatment for patients with kidney failure. Researchers interviewed 25 doctors across Belgium to understand their beliefs and attitudes. The goal is to find out if doctors' own views affect whether patients get home dialysis or in-center treatment, and to improve shared decision-making.
