Material and Methods: Qualitative research method and phenomenology, which is a pattern of this method, were used in the study. The study group consisted of six peritoneal dialysis patients followed in the Adult Peritoneal Dialysis Unit Center. A semi-structured interview form was used as a data collection tool. During the research process, the interviews with the participants were audio-recorded with permission of the participants. After the audio recordings were written down, content analysis was made by creating code-category and themes. During the study, validity-reliability was tried to be ensured.
