In the presence of this comorbidity, the nephrons, which are the functional units of the kidneys, gradually lose their ability to filter the blood and maintain the body's balance. Objective: To map and describe in the scientific literature the alternative therapies that contribute to the quality of life of chronic kidney patients on hemodialysis. Method: This is a Scoping Study or Scoping Review Protocol outlined in accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute, Reviewer Manual, and guided by the preferred report items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses for scope reviews. The research will take place in the databases described below: National Library of Medicine, Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences, Nursing Database, EMBASE and also in gray literature, more specifically, on the CAPES theses and dissertations portal. Results: 2,013 articles were identified in the National Library of Medicine database, 523 articles in Portuguese and 482 in Spanish in the Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences / Nursing Database, 927 articles in EMBASE and 91 results in the CAPES Theses and Dissertations Portal. Conclusion: The method used will allow us to present the main evidence found on the topic, allowing the identification of gaps in the literature, which can guide actions that will improve the living conditions of these people, as well as acceptance of treatment.Attribution 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/br/Falência renal crônicaterapias complementaresrenal dialysisquality of lifeTerapias alternativas para melhora da qualidade de vida de pacientes renais crônicos em hemodiálise: Protocolo de revisão de escopoAlternative therapies to improve the quality of life of chronic kidney patients under hemodialysis: a scope review protocolbachelorThesis
