Based on self-determination theory (SDT), this study examines whether HD patients' perceived autonomy support from health care practitioners (physicians and nurses) relates to the satisfaction of HD patients' basic needs and in turn influences their HRQOL.enBasic need satisfaction; Health-related quality of life (HRQOL); Hemodialysis (HD); Perceived autonomy support; Self-determination theory (SDT)[SDGs]SDG3adult; aged; Article; basic needs; empiricism; female; hemodialysis; hemodialysis patient; human; major clinical study; male; multicenter study; nurse; patient satisfaction; patient self-determination act; perception; personal autonomy; physician; priority journal; quality of life; structural equation modeling; Taiwan; Taiwanese; hemodialysis; middle aged; personal autonomy; procedures; psychology; quality of life; questionnaire; satisfaction; young adult; Adult; Aged; Female; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Personal Autonomy; Personal Satisfaction; Quality of Life; Renal Dialysis; Surveys and Questionnaires; Young Adultjournal article10.1007/s11136-017-1714-2290270692-s2.0-85031408179WOS:000427296700018https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85031408179
