NCT ID NCT07332949
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study surveys 100 adults on chronic dialysis to understand how the treatment impacts their sexual quality of life. Participants fill out a questionnaire during a dialysis session, covering sexual function and body image. The goal is to gather up-to-date information to help healthcare providers better address sexual health in routine kidney care.

- If successful, this study could help doctors better understand and address sexual health issues in dialysis patients, leading to improved communication and care.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, observational survey, not a treatment trial. It cannot prove any intervention works, and results may not apply to all dialysis patients.
