Introduction: Psychological and emotional alterations influence the bio-psycho-social state of the patient on hemodialysis. A better understanding of these aspects helps to understand and manage difficult daily situations. Objectives: This study describes the emotional state of patients on hemodialysis using the EE-D questionnaire, applied by nursing professionals and we will analyze if there is a relationship between this and other individual variables. Methodology: A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out in 84 patients on hemodialysis. The EE-D questionnaire was used, which evaluates the sadness and nervousness perceived by the patient in the last week, their concerns in different areas and what motivations they find to feel better or to be excited. Demographic, labor, adherence to pharmacological data, etc. were collected in an ad hoc questionnaire. Results: In the sadness parameter, we obtained a mean of 3.8 (0 nothing and 10 maximum), the mode was 0 and 73.8% obtained a level equal to or less than 5. Regarding the concerns, almost half of the patients reported having concerns related to the family environment and their illness or treatment, followed by the emotional, occupational and religious environment, respectively. Conclusions: Our patients present low levels of sadness and middle ones in the concerns related to their illness, showing in the majority, facilities to be excited, when finding motivations for it.
