简要总结
The standard dialysate temperature is usually set at 36.5°C in hemodialysis applications. Since this temperature is close to the patient's body temperature, it is ideal for preventing the patient from experiencing hypothermia while ensuring cardiovascular stability. In the literature, it is seen that changing the dialysate temperature, especially cold dialysis applications, is used in the management of nausea, the effect on vital signs, determining hemodialysis adequacy and common complications, and in the management of symptoms such as hypotension, cardiac stability, vascular stability, fatigue, and muscle cramps. However, no study has been found using cold dialysis in the management of fatigue that develops after dialysis.Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the effect of cold dialysis application on post-dialysis fatigue in patients receiving hemodialysis treatment.
详细描述
The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of cold dialysis application on post-dialysis fatigue in patients receiving hemodialysis treatment.
Research Hypothesis

干预措施: cold dialysis (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Post-dialysis fatigue scale
时间窗: 1 week
A minimum score of 11 and a maximum score of 55 is obtained from this scale, and an increase in the score indicates an increase in the severity of fatigue.
次要结局
- Thermal comfort perception(1 week)
