Abstract

Introduction: Thi study aimed to determine the status of PRURITUS and its relation to dialysis adequacy and laboratory factors among HEMODIALYSIS patients in Shiraz dialysis centers so that appropriate interventions could be planned for promotion of the life quality.Materials and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study on the data collected from 141 patients selected by convenient sampling. We used a questionnaire, interview, and lab test for data collection. Data were analyzed using SPSS 11.5 software and appropriate tests. A p value=0.05 was considered as the significance level.Results: The mean age of our patients was 53 ±16 years, (82.3% were married), and 53.2% of them were male. Of these patients, 39.7% had PRURITUS and most of them (48.1%) reported they had PRURITUS in different times of the day. A significant correlation was found between dialysis adequacy and PRURITUS (p=0.029), and the correlation of PRURITUS and high sensitive-C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) was significantly positive (p=0.009).Conclusion: PRURITUS is a common problem in haemodialysis patients and is significantly associated with dialysis adequacy and hs-CRP. The level of their quality of life could be enhanced by appropriate interventions.
