Abstract

Neurocognitive disorders (NCD) are common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is essential to identify and characterize these disorders at an early stage, so as to be able to offer appropriate treatment. In a chronic disease such as CKD, the patient's involvement in decision-making is a major challenge, given the prospects for suppletive treatment: hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, kidney transplantation or non-dialytic drug therapy. Many factors are associated with the development and progression of NCD in patients with CKD, and a variety of conditions can influence the outcome of cognitive assessment in these patients.
