We know that dyspnoea (uncomfortable or distressing breathing) is a common symptom in Kidney Failure. We are interested to know what Renal clinicians think about how this symptom is assessed and managed in clinical practice.
This study aims to explore the practices, attitudes and beliefs of clinicians regarding assessment and management of dyspnoea in people with Kidney Failure.
The study conforms to the Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research and the Australian Privacy Act and has been approved by the University of South Australia's Human Research Ethics Committee (Application ID: 202370).
