Shared decision-making intervention regarding dialysis modality in patients with CKD stage 5.

Among participating patients, SDM was effective when used to decide on dialysis treatment, and patients were satisfied with the dialysis method decision process. On the disease awareness scale, those who participated in this project had relatively high positive and low negative perceptions, so it can be concluded that SDM was relatively effective. The implementation of SDM was helpful in selecting patients' best dialysis methods, and SDM scale results were higher in the peritoneal dialysis group than in the hemodialysis group.
