Abstract

Background and aim: Uremic Pruritus due to chronic kidney disease is one of the most important and common symptoms in these patients. Meanwhile it is more severe in patients with end-stage renal disease. Evidence suggests that mental disorders, especially Anxiety and Depression, are very common in patients with chronic renal failure and those undergoing Hemodialysis. The aim of this study was to determine the level of Anxiety and Depression in Hemodialysis patients with Uremic Pruritus in the selected hospitals of Tehran during 2019. Methods: This research was a cross-sectional analytical correlational study. The population consisted of 300 Hemodialysis patients with Uremic Pruritus in the selected hospitals of Tehran during 2019 who were randomly selected. The instruments used in this study were demographic information questionnaire, Yosipovitch Pruritus questionnaire, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression questionnaire (HADS). Results: The mean Anxiety score of 2. 14 ± 10. 14 and the mean Depression score of 2. 41± 9. 62 indicated high levels of Anxiety and Depression in these patients. Among the demographic variables, there was a statistically significant relationship between the underlying diseases with the level of Anxiety and Depression. According to the p-value, a significant positive relationship was observed between the mean severity of Uremic Pruritus and Anxiety and Depression. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the level of Anxiety and Depression in Hemodialysis patients participating in the study was high which could be a risk for their health. The results also revealed that the higher the severity of the pruritus, the greater the degree of Anxiety and Depression. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the severity of Depression and Anxiety in these patients by providing appropriate strategies for the treatment of pruritus.
