Title : Analysis of body image status and influencing factors in young and middle-aged patients with maintenance hemodialysis
Abstract:
Background: Hemodialysis is one of the main ways to treat end-stage kidney disease. However, with the passage of time, the normal physical appearance of maintenance hemodialysis patients is disrupted, and their bodily functions gradually decline, leading to a significant decrease in their body image level, especially among young and middle-aged patients. A decrease in body image level can affect patients' disease management compliance, and lead to social avoidance, reducing their well-being. At present, it is necessary to conduct relevant research on the body image of middle-aged and young maintenance hemodialysis patients.
Purpose:
(1)To investigate the status quo of body image in young and middle-aged patients with maintenance hemodialysis.
(2)To analyze the influencing factors of body image in young and middle-aged patients with maintenance hemodialysis, so as to provide basis for related intervention of body image.
Methods: A total of 200 young and middle-aged maintenance hemodialysis patients were investigated by using general information questionnaire, Multidimensional Psychological Flexibility Inventory(MPFI-24) and the Chinese version of the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire?SCSQ?, Body Image Questionnaire for Hemodialysis Patients.
Results: The total score of body image in young and middle-aged patients with maintenance hemodialysis was 83.65+12.88. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that age, Height of vascular protrusions related to arteriovenous fistula , psychological flexibility , psychological distress , coping style were the influencing factors of body image in young and middle-aged patients with maintenance hemodialysis
Conclusion: body image in young and middle-aged patients with maintenance hemodialysis is at a high level. Nurses should formulate corresponding nursing intervention measures according to factors such as age, Height of vascular protrusions related to arteriovenous fistula , psychological flexibility , psychological distress , coping style, so as to enhance the body image level of patients , improve social avoidance, and increase well-being.
