Plain-language summary

This randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of an integrated nurse-led multidimensional intervention on functional performance, sleep quality, and psychological distress among patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis in Egypt. A total of 220 patients were randomly assigned to either an intervention group receiving structured nursing care or a control group receiving routine dialysis care. Outcomes were assessed at baseline, 12 weeks, and 6 months. The primary objective was to determine whether the intervention improved functional trajectories, while secondary objectives included evaluating its effects on sleep quality and psychological distress.
