简要总结
This is a single-center, pilot, randomized, open-label, non-profit interventional study designed to evaluate the impact of a multidisciplinary approach on chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus (CKD-aP) in patients undergoing chronic extracorporeal hemodialysis.
Twenty adult, clinically stable hemodialysis patients with moderate to severe uremic pruritus will be enrolled and randomized to receive either standard of care alone or standard of care plus a structured psychological intervention. The primary objective is to assess the change in pruritus-related quality of life after 6 months, measured by the KDQOL-SF questionnaire. Secondary objectives include evaluation of pruritus severity, quality of life, sleep quality, psychological distress, patient engagement, clinical and biochemical parameters, and exploration of patients' psychological experience over time.
The study aims to provide preliminary evidence on the effectiveness of integrating psychological support into the management of CKD-associated pruritus in the hemodialysis population.
