Explore the intradialytic physical complications among end stage renal disease patients receiving heamodialysis at selected Hospital, Chennai

Abstract

Quasi experimental research (2021 ) study was conducted at Haemodialysis’ Unit at Sree Balaji Medical College and Hospital among End stage renal disease patients receiving haemodialysis to explore the physical complications during dialysis by using purposive sampling technique ,the estimated sample size was 120 were selected for the study based on inclusion criteria . Selected demographic and clinical variables data were collected by using interview schedule method and the Selected physical complications were Fatigue and muscle cramps,Fatique was assessed by Visual Analogue scale ( VAS) it contains 18 sub characters ,of also with 2 subscales for fatigue and energy . Muscle cramps were assessed by using PENNS SPASM SCALE. The scale contained three sub categories of severity, inference and frequency. The calculated value for fatigue was maximum means score was 8.44 and minimum of 6.28 with SD Maximum was 1.54 and minimum SD was .42.
