Relationship between Sleep Quality and Comfort Level in Hemodialysis Patients: A Descriptive and Correlational Study

Öz

Aim: The aim of the research is to determine the sleep quality and comfort levels of individuals receiving hemodialysis treatment and the relationship between these two variables. Methods: This research was conducted with 126 individuals who received hemodialysis treatment between December 2021 and January 2022. Data were collected using a Patient Information Form, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the Hemodialysis Comfort Scale (HCS). Reliability analysis, descriptive statistics, independent groups t-test, ANOVA variance analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, and linear regression analysis were employed to analyze the data. In this research, p<0.05 was considered significant. Results: In this research, individuals scored 13.17±3.20 on the PSQI and 31.35±6.26 on the HCS, and a negative and low-level significant correlation was determined between the PSQI score and the HCS score. Conclusion: The results of the research determined that there was a negative and low-level significant relationship between sleep quality level and hemodialysis comfort level, and that poor sleep quality had a reducing effect on comfort during hemodialysis treatment.
