cold dialysis
Patients who meet the inclusion criteria will receive 3 sessions of cold dialysis treatment by reducing the dialysate temperature from 36.5°C to 36°C. Patients will receive this treatment for 1 week, i.e. 3 dialysis sessions. Each dialysis session will last 4 hours. During each dialysis session, the thermal comfort status of the patients will be evaluated by applying the Temperature Comfort Perception Scale at the beginning of dialysis, at the 1st, 2nd and 3rd hours of dialysis and at the end of dialysis. In addition, the day after each session, the patients will be called by phone and the Postdialysis Fatigue Scale will be re-administered and their fatigue levels will be evaluated.
