Abstract

Introduction: DEPRESSION and ANXIETY are among the principal manifestations of chronic illness and play a central role in patients’ experience with life-limiting disease. Chronic renal insufficiency is a clinical condition with a huge impact on patient quality of life. HEMODIALYSIS PATIENTS must confront the burdens of long-term illness and numerous treatment-associated stressors. The purpose of this study was to determine the DEPRESSION and ANXIETY in chronic haemodialysis patients.Materials and Methods: This descriptive survey performed at Mashhad University of Medical Sciences during the year 2007. A total of 150 patients regularly treated with hemodialysis were chosen through sensor sampling. This study was approved by the local committee of Medical Ethics. DEPRESSION was measured using CES-D (The Center for Epidemiological Studies DEPRESSION Scale) and ANXIETY was studied by Eshpil Berger standard questionnaire.Data analyzed by SPSS software. Results: This study revealed that prevalence of DEPRESSION was 64.5 percent in HEMODIALYSIS PATIENTS (Cut-off value was 16). This group had 51.4 percent prevalence of State ANXIETY and 49.0 percent of Trait ANXIETY. Statistical analysis demonstrated that there was a meaningful correlation between DEPRESSION and history of graft failure (p<0.04), dialysis duration (p<0.01), family income (p<0.001) and working status (p<0.02). However, there was no significant correlation between DEPRESSION scales and demographic factors including age, gender, frequency of dialysis and marital status.Conclusions: Our study showed that a substantial number of HEMODIALYSIS PATIENTS experienced DEPRESSION and ANXIETY. Regarding this problem, necessity for having consulting and psychotherapy center in hemodialysis ward is emphasized.
