简要总结
End stage renal disease (ESRD) is the 12th leading cause of death worldwide and the 8th in India. Haemodialysis is an important and common treatment method adopted for ESRD. Fatigue is commonly reported among patients receiving haemodialysis and is debilitating.A 12-week breathing-based leg exercise program helped enhance quality of life among haemodialysis patients. In spite of the numerous pieces of evidence regarding the benefits of exercises, it is not used as part of standard care for patients undergoing haemodialysis.It was found that low-intensity exercise leads to removal of small solutes like potassium. phosphate and urea nitrogen.The current study aims to evaluate the efficacy of nurse-executed low-intensity breathing-based leg exercises on selected biochemical parameters, fatigue, and health-related quality of life among haemodialysis patients and thereby enable patients undergoing haemodialysis to reduce fatigue and maintain a better quality of life with improved biochemical measures.The study tries to evaluate the following hypothesis:
H1: -There will be significant difference in mean pre-test and post-test scores of biochemical parameters among patients undergoing haemodialysis in interventional group with that of control group.
H2: There will be significant difference in mean pre-test and post-test scores of fatigue among patients undergoing haemodialysis in interventional group compared with the control group.
H3: There will be significant difference in mean pre-test and post-test scores of health-related quality of life among patients undergoing haemodialysis in interventional group with that of control group.
