Abstract

BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic harmed the world community including hemodialysis patients. It has affected the physical and psychological status of hemodialysis patients.

AIM: This study aimed to evaluate the dialysis adequacy, interdialytic weight gain, and quality of life in patients undergoing hemodialysis during the COVID-19 pandemic.

METHODS: A quantitative study with a cross-sectional approach was conducted on 105 regular hemodialysis patients from three hemodialysis centers in Riau Province, Indonesia. The patients were purposively recruited. Data on hemodialysis adequacy and interdialytic weight gain were collected in April–May 2020 using an observation sheet, while the quality of life was measured using SF 36. To analyze the data, Pearson’s correlation test and linear regression were performed.

RESULTS: Within the sample of 53 male patients was 50.5% and 52 female patients was 49.5%. The mean score of dialysis adequacy during April–May was 1.75, while the mean IDWG was 2.2 kg, and the mean quality of life was 91.51. There was a relationship between adequacy and IDWG (p = 0.002), and between IDWG and quality of life (p =0.015). There was no relationship between adequacy and quality of life (p = 0.360).

CONCLUSION: IDWG influenced the quality of life of hemodialysis patients. Health-care professionals need to help patients to keep their IDWG in the normal range to survive within COVID-19 pandemic.
