Abstract

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) causes various complications that significantly impact a patient's overall well-being and quality of life. Sleep disorders are a particularly common issue, especially in patients with advanced disease. This systematic review aims to explore the distinguishing features, prevalence rates, underlying causes, and associated factors related to the most frequent sleep disorders in these patients and present the latest treatment methods for them. It also investigates the link between CKD and sleep disorders and presents the results of the most common sleep disorders found in patients with CKD. Four major sleep disorders have been identified: sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome, excessive drowsiness, and insomnia. These sleep disorders have been discovered to be highly common in CKD patients and have a major influence on their quality of life and morbidity.
