A Comparison of Quality of Life and Travel-Related Factors between In-center and Satellite-Based Hemodialysis Patients

[摘要] Background and objectives: Shorter travel times and distance to dialysis clinics have been associated with improved patient outcomes and a higher health-related quality of life (HRQOL). The objective of this study was to compare HRQOL between prevalent in-center and satellite dialysis patients, as well as compare travel-related factors that contribute to HRQOL between in-center and satellite-based patients.
