Summary

Chronic Hemodialysis is a treatment for kidney failure. It involves the construction of three treatment sessions per week extrarenal lasting 4 hours each. This treatment is necessary but it has an impact on the quality of life of patients.The investigators believe that to improve the overall quality of life in hemodialysis patients, the quality of each hemodialysis session must be improved. The quality criterion is not only medical, it must also take into account the patient's perception about the course of its meeting : that's what we call quality of experience of the dialysis session. Our daily healthcare practice shows that each hemodialysis session is experienced differently by the patient according to different factors : physical, psychological, relational, technical, temporal. The quality of the experience of a hemodialysis session could be positively influenced by the use of supplements occupational assets or liabilities, for improving patient satisfaction or by enhancing its relationship with the staff. Indeed, a preliminary study ( in the nephrology unit of our establishment in January 2012) of 8 patients undergoing active occupational educational activity during hemodialysis, showed that the experience of the hemodialysis session was potentially improvable (experienced patients improved, reduced cramps ... ). However, to assess the impact of such measures on the lives of the dialysis session and the quality of life in general, the investigators need to measure the quality of living of a dialysis session. There is not, at present, specific tool to measure the quality of the experience of a hemodialysis session. This tool would measure the impact of a caregiver support occupational during dialysis sessions. The main objective of this study is to create and validate an instrument to measure the quality of living of a hemodialysis of chronic renal insufficiency subject.
