                       one of the main public health problems in the world,
                       affecting more than 10% of the Spanish population leading
                       to high morbimortality and health care costs. However, the
                       most common therapy currently used to treat it,
                       hemodialysis, has made it possible to improve the life
                       expectancy of patients suffering from it. Objetive: To know
                       the nursing intervention in the care of the patient
                       submitted to hemodialysis treatment.   Methodology: A
                       bibliographic search was carried out using articles
                       published within the last 5 years and written in Spanish,
                       English and/or Portuguese. The following databases were
                       used as sources of information: Pubmed, Science Direct,
                       Scielo and Dialnet, which have been complemented with a
                       Practical Guide for Patients from the Government of Aragon.
                       Development: The nursing staff is responsible both for
                       monitoring the patient and for dealing with any
                       complications that may arise during a hemodialysis session.
                       They also contribute to improving the patient's quality of
                       life through practices such as social support, music
                       therapy and humor. Finally, his work as a health educator
                       in terms of the nutritional requirements of people
                       undergoing this therapy stands out. Conclusions: The
                       importance of hemodialysis patient care lies in the nursing
                       intervention during the sessions. It allows both patient
                       care and improvement of their quality of life, as well as
                       health education about the disease.",
