Abstract
Plain Language SummaryWe conducted a study to better understand and predict the risk of CKD-associated pruritus, a common itching condition in patients with severe kidney disease undergoing peritoneal dialysis. Our research included an analysis of the risk factors associated with this condition. Using information from uremic pruritus patients, we developed a special tool that takes into account factors such as a patient’s age, certain blood markers, hemoglobin levels, residual urine volume, and renal Kt/V. This tool is designed to help doctors estimate a patient’s likelihood of developing CKD-associated pruritus. Our results show that this tool is not only accurate but also practical for use in medical settings, aiding doctors in making informed treatment decisions.
