Chất lượng cuộc sống của bệnh nhân suy thận mạn đang chu kỳ chạy thận nhân tạo tại Bệnh viện Bình Dân, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh năm 2024

Abstract

   This study aimed to evaluate the quality of life (QoL) and related factors among patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis at Binh Dan Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City. A cross-sectional study design was used, surveying 330 patients aged 18 to 59 with the WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire, which assessed four domains: physical health, psychological well-being, social relationships, and environmental factors. The findings showed that QoL was moderate overall, with physical health (mean score of 44.2) and psychological well-being (mean score of 45.7) scoring lower than social relationships (mean score of 51.3) and environmental factors (mean score of 53.1). Age was negatively correlated with physical and psychological health, while education and income were positively associated with better social and environmental scores. Frequent dialysis and comorbidities, such as diabetes, were linked to poorer physical and psychological health. The study emphasizes the need for comprehensive care approaches that address physical, psychological, and social aspects to enhance the well-being of hemodialysis patients
