Chronic renal failure at dialysis  stage is a serious pathology that radically alters patients' lives. The constraints associated with time-consuming treatment and increased fatigue have a major impact on the employment rate and, more generally, on participation in ancillary occupational activities (physical activities, voluntary activities, whether social, cultural or sporting). The objective of this study was to compare life plans of four dialysis modalities that enable patients to play a substantial role in their own care and have social and professional lives : non-assisted hemodialysis (HD) in self-care units, non-assisted Automated Peritoneal Dialysis, daily home HD, and non-facility-based nocturnal extended hours HD (1).
Questionnaires that covered professional, extra-professional (voluntary work) and leisure activities, level of fatigue (SONG), level of physical activity and sedentariness (weekly energy expenditure, RPAQ) and quality of life (EuroQol-5D-5L) were proposed by nephrologists to their patients in the Frenhc networks of private not-for-profit dialysis centres.
Despite a young age, the patients had low levels of occupational integration and physical activity, complaining of fatigue and an altered quality of life. Patients on Long Nocturnal HD are more likely in paid employement (p<0.05, adjusted on age) and a tendency towards a better perceived state of overall health.

There is still a great deal of progress to be made in improving patients' quality of life and getting them involved in social and physical activities.
