      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: The patients will be randomly assigned to intervention and control groups using block randomization. For this purpose, we will prepare six sheets of paper, writing on two sheets the name of the intervention 1 and on two other sheets the name of the intervention 2 and on the third two sheets the name of the control. The paper sheets will be pooled, placed in a container, and randomly drawn one at a time for each patient without replacement until all six sheets are drawn. The six paper sheets will be then placed back into the container, and this action repeated until the sample size is reached.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group 1: Consuming ice chips with a volume of 5 ml every time patients feel thirsty until the end of dialysis. Intervention 2: Intervention group 2: Spray water in the mouth every time patients feel thirsty until the end of dialysis. Intervention 3: Control group: Consuming water and fluids every time patients feel thirsty until the end of dialysis.</i_freetext>
