Abstract

Aim/ Background: The holistic approach in medicine refers to addressing an individual as a whole. Family physicians should be familiar with psychological as well as physical problems of their hemodialysis patients. This study aims to measure depressive mood levels of patients in a hemodialysis center, and to investigate the potential risk factors with a holistic approach. Method: This study was conducted on patients receiving treatment at a private hemodialysis center. During the hemodialysis session, the patients’s blood samples were taken, and serum phosphorus, creatinine, albumin, and hematocrit levels were measured. A semi-structured questionnaire form was used to investigate the sociodemographic characteristics and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) was used to determine depressive mood level of the patients. Results: This study was conducted on a sample of 88 patients (33 female, 55 male). The mean BDI scores were 16.7±9.8, and when the cut-off point of BDl was taken as 15, the rate of depressive mood was %56.8 for hemodialysis patients. We evaluated the duration of illness, family structure, educational level, having non-renal comorbid disease, employment status, economic status, and also blood creatinine, albumin, phosphorus, and hematocrit levels. The mean BDI score was significantly lower in patients who lived in simple nuclear families with fewer than six individuals at home. Conclusion: The holistic approach is essential, especially in chronic disease follow-up in primary healthcare. Family support and psychological evaluation with a holistic approach are vital for hemodialysis patients.

Bir Hemodiyaliz Merkezindeki Hastalarının Beck Depresyon Envanteri Puanlarının Belirlenmesi: Holistik Bir Yaklaşımla Değerlendirme

Abstract

Amaç: Tıpta bütüncül yaklaşım, bireyi bir bütün olarak ele almayı ifade eder. Aile hekimleri, takip ettikleri hemodiyaliz hastalarının fiziksel problemleri kadar psikolojik sorunlarından da haberdar olmalıdır. Bu çalışmada, bir hemodiyaliz merkezinde tedavi gören hastaların depresif duygudurum seviyesi ve olası risk faktörlerini bütüncül yaklaşımla tespit etmeyi amaçladık. Yöntem: Bu çalışma, özel bir hemodiyaliz merkezinde tedavi gören hastalar üzerinde gerçekleştirildi. Hemodiyaliz seansı sırasında hastalar tartılarak diyete uyum tespiti yapıldı, serum fosfor, kreatinin, albümin ve hematokrit düzeyleri ölçüldü. Hastaların sosyodemografik özelliklerini araştırmak için yarı yapılandırılmış bir anket formu ve depresif duygudurum seviyesinin belirlenmesi için Beck Depresyon Envanteri (BDE) kullanıldı. Bulgular: Bu çalışma 88 hastadan (33 kadın, 55 erkek) oluşan bir örnek üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Ortalama BDE skoru 16.7 ± 9.8 idi ve BDE'nin kesme noktası 15 olarak alındığında, hemodiyaliz hastalarında depresyon oranı % 56.8 idi. Hastalık süresi, aile yapısı, eğitim düzeyi, böbrek dışı komorbid hastalık varlığı, istihdam durumu, ekonomik durum ve ayrıca kan kreatinin, albümin, fosfor ve hematokrit düzeyleri değerlendirildi. Evde altı kişiden az birey olan basit çekirdek ailelerde yaşayan hastalarda ortalama BDE skoru anlamlı olarak düşük saptandı. Sonuç: Bütüncül yaklaşım birinci basamakta özellikle kronik hastalık takibinde önemlidir. Hemodiyaliz hastaları için aile desteği ve bütüncül bir yaklaşımla psikolojik değerlendirme hayatidir.
