简要总结
Stress management in dialysis patients plays a key role in reducing these negativities and in maintaining both physical and mental well-being. In dialysis patients, on the other hand, the effectiveness of stress ball use on comfort and stress was evaluated, and no study was found that evaluated its effect on anxiety.
详细描述
Stress ball is one of the non-pharmacological methods used to distract individuals when they consciously focus on a stimulus. With the squeezing of the ball, the nerves in the hands are stimulated and stimuli are sent to the limbic region of the brain, and these stimuli provide an acupressure effect. At the same time, it is the easiest and cheapest method that allows the mind to get away from stress and maintain the mental well-being of the person.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline Depression Level at 12 Dialysis Session
时间窗: Up to 2 months
It will be assessed two times with Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Seven of the 14 questions measure anxiety and seven measure depression. Responses are scored in a four-point Likert format between 0-3. The lowest score that patients can get from both subscales is 0, and the highest score is 21. The cut-off points of the Turkish version of HADS were determined as 10 for the anxiety subscale and 7 for the depression subscale.
