Hemodialysis complex treatment regimen includes fluid and diet management. In this context, it is recommended that patients choose foods with low sodium, potassium and phosphorus content, maintain adequate protein intake, and regulate their daily fluid intake not exceeding 1-2 liters. In maintaining the health of hemodialysis patients; It is very important that they comply with the treatment program, diet and fluid restrictions. As the life expectancy increases, the time spent with chronic disease also increases, and both the patient himself and his relatives living in the same house are faced with this chronic disease and accompanying stress factors for a longer period of time, making it difficult for them to adapt to the progression of the disease. Pecha Kucha (PK), meaning "chat voice" or "chat" in Japanese, refers to a well-crafted, fast and concise presentation format. In a PK presentation, each presenter is only allowed to show 20 PowerPoint slides for 20 seconds each on a timer. When the literature was examined, no study was found that evaluated the effect of the education given to hemodialysis patients with the Pecha Kuka method on the attitude towards diet therapy and compliance with fluid restriction. In addition, it is thought that this short and concise education method will contribute to a better understanding of the attitudes of patients receiving hemodialysis treatment towards diet therapy and their compliance with fluid restriction, thus providing important data for future studies.
