Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Self-Care Ability Scale

  Self-care ability scale, developed by Besey Ören in 2010, consists of 22 items and five sub-dimensions. These dimensions are; drug use (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 18), diet (8, 9, 10, 11, 12), hygienic care (15, 16, 17, 19), mental state (20, 21, 22) and self-monitoring (6,7,13, 14). The scale is a 3-point Likert type (0: I never apply, 1: I sometimes apply, 2: I always apply). Items 12, 20, 21, 22 on the scale are scored negatively. The scores obtained from the scale range from 0 to 44. According to the scale, as the scores obtained increase, the self-care ability of patients receiving dialysis treatment increases.

  Up to 8 weeks

• Fluid Control Scale in Hemodialysis Patients

  Fluid control scale in hemodialysis patients, developed by Coşar and Çınar in 2012 consists of 24 items and three sub-dimensions. These sub-dimensions are; knowledge (1-7), behavior (8-18) and attitude (19-24). The scale is a 3-point Likert type (1: Disagree, 2: Undecided, 3: Agree). Items 7, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and 24 in the scale are scored negatively. Scores obtained from the scale range from 24 to 72. As the score obtained increases, the patients' compliance with fluid control increases.

  Up to 8 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Patient Education

EXPERIMENTAL

The intervention group was given 40-50 minutes of training.

Other: Education

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Routine nursing care was given to hemodialysis patients in this group without any training.

Interventions

Education OTHER

Patients who agreed to participate in the study and met the inclusion criteria were interviewed face to face before the HD session and their verbal and written permissions were obtained by reading the voluntary consent form. The researcher interviewed the patients one-on-one and provided information about the purpose of the study and the training program. Then, scale forms were applied to the patients. In order not to interrupt the training and not to distract the patients in this group, a separate room in the Dialysis Unit was used during the training. The education booklet "Living with Hemodialysis" on hemodialysis management prepared in line with the literature was given to the patients by the researcher. The training of a patient lasted an average of 40-50 minutes. During and at the end of the training, the patients' questions were answered in the training room.
