Abstract

In Vietnam, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the most important health problem across the country with an estimated six million people having CKD and about 80.000 people having end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). Providing health education programs to people with dialysis during COVID-19 is extremely important to support people to have better dialysis care and improve their quality of life. Methods/ design: One-group pretest-posttest intervention design is used to conduct this study. Conclusion: The expected outcomes of this research are to improve dialysis patients’ knowledge of kidney disease, COVID-19 prevention skills, and dialysis self-management to assist dialysis patients in Vietnam to have better self-care for their disease in order to have a better quality of life.
