The quality of life (QOL) needs to be regularly assessed in hemodialysis patients. Hemodialysis patients suffer from average quality of life and survival. A descriptive research design was used, 96 respondents who had received haemodialysis treatment after completion of 1 month duration of hemodialysis in two different teaching hospital at Bharatpur, Chitwan. Data was collected by using standard tool Short Form-36 version2 through face to face structure interview schedule. The objective of study is to find out the quality of life (QOL) of haemodialysis patients. Various test such as one sample t-test, ANOVA test, independent t-test, Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whittney U test, Pearson's correlation was applied. The findings showed that higher proportion of respondents were from 40-59 years (41.0%) and male (62.2%). The mean±SD was 57.45±16.25, 55.72±22.41 and 60.04±11.50 in overall QOL, physical and mental component summary respectively which was slightly above the average. All dimention and sub scale was satistically significant. Younger respondents had statistically significant with overall QOL (p<0.001) and physical component summary (p<0.001). Non diabetics had better in overall QOL (p=0.040) and physical component summary (p=0.033). Level of educational had also positive impact in overall QOL(p=0.010), physical (p=0.006) and mental component summary (p<0.001). Employment status (p=0.020) and sex (p=0.037) was also statistically significant with mental component summary. There was correlation between physical and mental component summary with overall QOL 0.970(p<0.001) and 0.698(p<0.001), and between the physical and mental component summary was 0.502(p<0.001). Below average score were seen in the general health (32.86±25.74) and vitality (41.53±13.98) sub scale. In order to improve quality of life family, physician, nurses and policy makers can use this finding.

“…As previously suggested by Mucsi et al(2008), the findings here presented evidence of a significant connection between obesity and poor quality of life and highlighted the significance of preventive measures to achieve full well-being and maintain high levels of QoL among patients with chronic diseases [ 33 ]. In line with previous studies, results here revealed an increase in mental QoL [ 34 ] and a decrease in physical QoL among patients receiving RRT over time [ 35 ]. However, the results of this study contradicted those of Barbosa et al (2017), who were unable to find a clear correlation between QoL and the existence of comorbidities or dialysis length [ 36 ].…”

Patients with chronic illnesses, such as those with chronic kidney disease (CKD) that are undergoing renal replacement therapy (RRT), face significant psychological changes. This descriptive cross-sectional research was carried out to investigate the factors that influence depressive symptoms and quality of life (QoL) in patients with end-stage renal disease. Data were collected from 70 participants undergoing RRT using a self-reported questionnaire that included sociodemographic information, depressive symptoms, disease status, and QoL. The Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) screening scale was used to measure depressive symptoms and the SF-36 (Medical Outcome Survey-Short Form 36) was used to assess QoL. Participants in the study rated their depressive symptoms as ‘minimum (44.3%), ‘mild’ (20%), ‘moderate’ (21.4%), and ‘severe (14.3%). Furthermore, a shorter duration of dialysis and comorbid conditions were significantly associated with the development of depressive symptoms. Patients on RRT for a longer period of time had lower physical activity scores than patients on dialysis for a shorter period of time. Male participants have a higher mental QoL than female participants, suggesting that the mental aspect of renal disease is less impaired than the physical aspect. The findings of this study are expected to increase awareness of RRT therapy targets and enhance patient outcomes.

“…However, Li et al (2016) did not find any association between the duration of disease diagnosis and family caregivers' overall quality of life. Several studies have shown that longer periods of caregiving were associated with lower QOL in physical, psychological, and environmental domains (Shdaifat & Manaf, 2012). A prolonged period of diagnosis often leads to an extended period of caregiving, which includes recurrent hospital admissions and long-term treatment.…”

This study aimed to determine the quality of life of family caregivers of patients with leukemia and the factors contributing to it. The RAND 36-Item was used to collect data from 152 caregivers. The mean scores of six dimensions of Quality of life (QoL) were low, indicating a limited health state. Caregivers’ educational level, age, number of admissions, time since diagnosis, relationship with the patient, and family income significantly predicted the caregivers’ QOL. This study confirms the need for ongoing interventions to improve caregivers’ quality of life. Particular attention should be paid to older caregivers, who have low education, are from a low socioeconomic background, and care for the patients for a long time. Oncology nurses must ensure that family caregivers receive the appropriate support and resources to care for their patients at home and to assess the areas of need to achieve a better quality of life for patients and their caregivers.
