Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Evaluation of The Upper Extremity Functional Level
Time Frame: Evaluations were made after hemodialysis patients rested for half an hour after treatment.
Turkish version of the Shoulder, Arm and Hand Problems Questionnaire (The DASH-T) was used to asses the functional level of the upper extremity. Turkish version of the shoulder, arm and hand problems questionnaire consists of 30 questions. The first 20 questions are to examine physical competence, and the last 10 questions question pain and related functional and environmental constraints. As the score is closer to zero, the functional level of the person is high; as the score is far from zero the functional level of the person is low .
Secondary Outcomes
- Evaluation of Physical Activity Level(Evaluations were made after hemodialysis patients rested for half an hour after treatment.)
- Evaluation of Physical Function Level(Evaluations were made after hemodialysis patients rested for half an hour after treatment.)
