Abstract

<p>Communication between patients and healthcare providers is crucial in medical care, involving transmitting information about the patient's symptoms and treatment and decision-making. The relationship between healthcare providers and patients is evolving, transitioning from a physician-centered paternalism approach to patients-centered shared decision-making that emphasizes patients' values. In dialysis therapy, the relationship between patients and healthcare providers is unique and long-term, and good communication is believed to be related to the patients' quality of lives. In dialysis therapy, efforts are made to focus on patients' chief complaints and symptoms and adopt treatment methods that reflect patients' preferences. Additionally, patient input is now being incorporated into developing clinical practice guidelines. Dialysis therapy is a form of chronic care, and maintaining patients' motivation for treatment can be challenging. Considering such unique aspects, communication skills are crucial for maintaining a good relationship between healthcare providers and patients.</p>
