Backgound and Objectives: Chronic Kidney Disease and the number of patients on renal replacement therapies have become more frequent in recent decades. Even with new technologies used in hemodialysis, which result in greater patient safety, acute symptoms and complications after the procedure may still occur. Recognizing these complications and knowing how to manage them is crucial to ensure a better quality of life for these patients. Content: This is a literature search on symptoms related to hemodialysis, carried out in electronic databases: Periodicals CAPES (Coordination of Higher Education Personnel Training, Brazil), Scientific Electronic Library Online - SciELO, LILACS and Pubmed, from which 30 articles were selected on the main complications observed and described during the course of hemodialysis. Conclusion: There was a prevalence of symptoms related to fluid and electrolyte imbalance and hemodynamic changes, especially headache. KEYWORDS: Renal Insufficiency Chronic; Symptoms; Renal Dialysis.Downloads
