N2 - Despite the superiority of peritoneal dialysis (PD) over hemodialysis (HD) regarding health-related quality of life (HRQOL), the specific HRQOL domain(s) that predict unplanned HD transfer remains uncertain. In this cohort study, we assessed the HRQOL of 50 outpatients undergoing PD using the Japanese version 1.3 Kidney Disease Quality of Life-Short Form from March 2017 to March 2018 and prospectively analyzed the association of each HRQOL component with HD transfer until June 2021. During the follow-up (41.5 (13.0–50.1) months), 21 patients were transferred to HD. In a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model adjusted for age, sex, PD vintage, urine output, Charlson comorbidity index, and incremental shuttle walking test, a higher sleep score was significantly associated with lower HD transfer rates (HR 0.70 per 10, p = 0.01). An adjusted subdistribution hazard model where elected transition to HD, death, and transplantation were considered competing events of unintended HD transfer that showed sleep score as an exclusive predictor of HD transfer (HR 0.70 per 10, p = 0.002). Our results suggest that sleep score among the HRQOL subscales is instrumental in predicting HD transfer in patients undergoing PD.
