Latar Belakang: Penyakit Ginjal Kronis (PGK) adalah kondisi kronis yang memengaruhi fungsi ginjal, sering memerlukan penyesuaian diet untuk mengurangi komplikasi dan meningkatkan kualitas hidup. Namun, hubungan antara diet dan kualitas hidup masih memerlukan pemahaman lebih mendalam. Tujuan Penelitian: Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis hubungan antara diet dengan kualitas hidup pada pasien dengan gagal ginjal kronis Metode: Literature review dilakukan melalui pencarian artikel di database Google Scholar, PubMed, ResearchGate, dan DOAJ menggunakan kata kunci “Chronic Kidney Disease,” “Dietary,” dan “Quality of Life.” Seleksi artikel berdasarkan kriteria inklusi: publikasi 10 tahun terakhir, tersedia full-text, dan sesuai topik penelitian. Proses pencarian menghasilkan lima artikel yang dianalisis menggunakan kerangka PRISMA. Hasil: Mayoritas artikel menunjukkan bahwa kepatuhan terhadap diet, seperti diet rendah protein, natrium, dan kalium, membantu mengurangi komplikasi dan meningkatkan kualitas hidup pasien PGK. Namun, beberapa penelitian juga menunjukkan bahwa kualitas hidup pasien dipengaruhi oleh faktor lain, seperti usia, komorbiditas, dan fungsi ginjal. Kesimpulan: Diet berperan penting dalam meningkatkan kualitas hidup pasien PGK, meskipun faktor lain juga berkontribusi. Pendekatan holistik yang mempertimbangkan diet dan kondisi pasien secara menyeluruh diperlukan. Kata Kunci: Penyakit Ginjal Kronis, diet, kualitas hidup, kepatuhan diet.

Background: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a chronic condition affecting kidney function, often requiring dietary adjustments to reduce complications and improve quality of life. However, the relationship between diet and quality of life still requires deeper understanding. Objective: This study aims to analyze the relationship between diet and quality of life in patients with chronic kidney failure. Method: A literature review was conducted by searching articles in Google Scholar, PubMed, ResearchGate, and DOAJ databases using the keywords “Chronic Kidney Disease,” “Dietary,” and “Quality of Life.” Articles were selected based on inclusion criteria: published within the last 10 years, available in full text, and relevant to the research topic. The search process resulted in five articles analyzed using the PRISMA framework. Result: Most articles indicated that adherence to diets, such as low-protein, lowsodium, and low-potassium diets, helps reduce complications and improve the quality of life for CKD patients. However, some studies also highlighted that patients’ quality of life is influenced by other factors, such as age, comorbidities, and kidney function. Conclusion: Diet plays an essential role in improving the quality of life of CKD patients, although other factors also contribute. A holistic approach considering both dietary and patient conditions is necessary. Keyword: Chronic Kidney Disease, diet, quality of life, dietary adherence
