Abstract: Objective: Evaluate the health-related quality of life for patiens with end-stage renal disease and identify the most significant differences depending on gender and treatment received. Methods and Materials: Observational, analytical and cross-sectional study (second semester 2014) carried out on patiens having high-flux hemodialysis or On-line hemodiafiltration treatment. We did descriptive and inferential statistics and the results with signification grades equal or less than 5% (p<0.05) were regarded as significant. Results: Significant differences in: Albumin values according to the dialysis technique and appropriate treatment doses (Kt/V) depending on gender. Quality of life test dimensions: Symptoms/problems, employment status, sexual function, physical activity, pain and vitality (depending on gender) and according to technique with sleep, staff attitude and physical activity. In the multi-variable analysis; gender, level of education and dialysis technique were the only clinical and socio-demographic variables which ended up being reliable predictors in some of the dimensions of the scales KDQOL-SF. Conclusions: The socio-demographic variables, analytical, gender and dialysis techniques have influence on renal disease patient’s perception.
