Design of therapeutic education workshops for home haemodialysis in a patient-centered chronic kidney diseases research: a qualitative study.

Rationale & Objective: A quarter of patients do not receive any information on the modalities of renal remplacement therapy (RRT) before its initiation. In our facility, we provide therapeutic education workshops for all RRT except for home hemodialysis (HHD). The objectives of this study were to identify and describe the needs of CKD patients and caregivers for RRT with HHD and design therapeutic education workshops.
