Abstract:
Quality of life is a term frequently used but seldom well defined in nursing research. The lack of a consistent definition and measures to assess the various quality of life dimensions makes it difficult to compare research findings across multiple studies. The aim of this article was to identify the factors that constitute quality of life as perceived by Chinese dialysis patients in Hong Kong.
