The Impact

Chronic kidney disease, also referred to as end-stage renal disease (ESRD), is a prevalent and chronic condition for which treatment is necessary as a means of survival once affected individuals reach the fifth and final stage of the disease. Dialysis is a form of maintenance treatment that aids with kidney functioning once a normal kidney is damaged. There are two main types of dialysis: hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD). Each form of treatment is discussed between the patient and nephrologist and is largely dependent upon the following factors: medical condition, ability to administer treatment, supports, geographical location, access to necessary equipment/supplies, personal wishes, etc. For Indigenous Peoples who reside on remote Canadian First Nation communities, relocation is often recommended due to geographical location and limited access to both health care professionals and necessary equipment/supplies (i.e., quality of water, access to electricity/plumbing, etc). Consequently, the objective of this paper is to determine the psychosocial and somatic effects for Indigenous Peoples with ESRD if they have to relocate from remote First Nation communities to an urban centre. A review of the literature suggests that relocation to urban centres has negative implications that are worth noting: cultural isolation, alienation from family and friends, somatic issues, psychosocial issues, loss of independence and role adjustment. As a result of relocation, it is evident that the impact is profound in terms of an individuals’ mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being. Ensuring that adequate social support and education are available to patients and families would aid in alleviating stressors associated with managing chronic kidney disease.

Important Indicator

Assessing quality of life in patients with varying degrees of chronic kidney disease is an important issue because of its impact on clinical decision-making as increasing the efficiency of resources in the health system. Through this survey provided an attempt to assess the quality of life of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing dialysis. Commitment to maximize their functioning and well-being constitutes the essence of the purpose of health care. In recent decades elaborate SF 36 is cut by a gauge derive so simple and basic that helps to evaluate the function of the target of researchers, a certain age group, a disease or a treatment group. Short questionnaire forms SF36 instrument gauge is used to determine the level of quality of life in patients with chronic renal failure under the different stages of treatment with dialysis. The study involved 206 people, 112 from patients to Tirana and Shkodra and 94 healthy persons, who collaborated consensually for completing the questionnaires. Based on the results, the quality of life of dialysis patients is significantly worse than that of the healthy population and patients with other injuries less severe of renal function. Survey indicates that a more holistic approach to be used in the treatment of patients with chronic kidney disease including clinical decision making and patient perception. Precisely for this it is recommended to enter the practice of clinical interest that a set of questionnaires that provide information on patients' perception of health as an important indicator that facilitates the physician-patient collaboration in order to better treatment of the disease and increase the quality the life of the patient.

Abstract Background and Objectives Compliance with dietary, fluid, and medication instructions is a critically significant factor for the health and well-being of patients undergoing hemodialysis for an extended period. The current study assessed the correlation between noncompliance behavior and biochemical parameters of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis. The study's objectives were 1) to assess patients' noncompliance behavior using a questionnaire, 2) to determine the biochemical parameters of CKD patients having noncompliance behavior, and 3) to find the correlation between biological parameters and noncompliance behavior. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted from July 12, 2018, to February 10, 2019. A purposive sampling technique was used to recruit the participants, and 100 participants were included in the study. The End-Stage Renal Disease–Adherence Questionnaire was used to assess the non-compliance behavior. Results Most dialysis patients (70%) were compliant with the therapeutic regime, while 30% failed to comply. The study revealed a significant positive correlation between noncompliance behavior and biochemical parameters of CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis (r = 0.578, p < 0.05). Conclusion Noncompliance behavior is significantly correlated with the biochemical parameters among patients with CKD on dialysis. Optimal health is possible through fluid and dietary compliance in these patients. Hence, adherence behavior plays a significant role in the health and recovery of dialysis patients with CKD.

Abstract Background and Aims Patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis (HD) treatment have a health-related quality of life (HRQoL) lower than the reference values of the Spanish population. Previous studies have shown through music therapy reduce levels of pain, anxiety and depression in chronic kidney disease patients on hemodialysis. This study presents an intervention with classical music performed live during HD sessions. It is the first time to study the effect of classical music heard live on HRQL. Method Randomized clinical trial by groups. 90 patients agreed to participate. They were randomized into an intervention group (IG) and a control group (CG). The IG listened to 30/45 minutes of live classical music in two of the three weekly HD sessions for 1 month. The CG followed his usual treatment. Different individual scales of the quality of life test in kidney diseases (KDQOL-SF) were analyzed, in two times, baseline (Start) and after (End) the musical intervention in both groups. The analysis was performed using a mixed linear regression model for repeated measures with independent variables (age, sex, months in HD, Kt/v, Hemoglobin (Hb)) and dependent variables (individual KDQOL-SF scale scores). Results The CG sample included 43 patients with a mean age of 75.8 years; 22 women (51%); mean Kt/v 1.53; mean Hb 11.5 and mean time on HD 60.46 months. The GI sample included 47 patients with a mean age of 73.53 years; 18 women (38%); mean Kt/v 1.47; mean Hb 11.3 and mean time on HD 63.34 months. The results show that after the intervention, IG vs CG increased the mean score (pm) in all the scales significantly. The End time and GI interaction showed a mean score increase of 15.78 (p &lt;0.001) for the Symptoms/problems scale; 14.96 (p &lt;0.001) scale Effects of kidney disease; 16.36 (p &lt;0.001) on the Kidney disease burden scale; 14.78 (p &lt;0.001) on the Sleep scale; 25.46 (p &lt;0.001) on the Vitality scale; 29.57 (p &lt;0.001) on the Emotional well-being scale; 41.92 (p &lt;0.001) on the Pain scale and 23.39 (p &lt;0.001) on the General Health scale. Conclusion Live classical music intervention during hemodialysis sessions improves self-perceived HRQL in patients with chronic kidney disease on HD

ObjectiveTo describe the perspectives on life participation by young adults with childhood-onset chronic kidney disease (CKD).DesignSemi-structured interviews; thematic analysis.SettingMultiple centres across six countries (Australia, Canada, India, UK, USA and New Zealand).ParticipantsThirty young adults aged 18 to 35 years diagnosed with CKD during childhood.ResultsWe identified six themes: struggling with daily restrictions (debilitating symptoms and side effects, giving up valued activities, impossible to attend school and work, trapped in a medicalised life, overprotected by adults and cautious to avoid health risks); lagging and falling behind (delayed independence, failing to keep up with peers and socially inept); defeated and hopeless (incapacitated by worry, an uncertain and bleak future, unworthy of relationships and low self-esteem and shame); reorienting plans and goals (focussing on the day-to-day, planning parenthood and forward and flexible planning); immersing oneself in normal activities (refusing to miss out, finding enjoyment, determined to do what peers do and being present at social events); and striving to reach potential and seizing opportunities (encouragement from others, motivated by the illness, establishing new career goals and grateful for opportunities).ConclusionsYoung adults encounter lifestyle limitations and missed school and social opportunities as a consequence of developing CKD during childhood and as a consequence lack confidence and social skills, are uncertain of the future, and feel vulnerable. Some re-adjust their goals and become more determined to participate in ‘normal’ activities to avoid missing out. Strategies are needed to improve life participation in young adult ‘graduates’ of childhood CKD and thereby strengthen their mental and social well-being and enhance their overall health.

BackgroundSelf-management is a crucial step towards achieving better physical and mental well-being and a better health-related quality of life for individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Despite the high prevalence of CKD and the significant burdens faced by the individuals with CKD, their caregivers, and healthcare systems, very few studies have explored CKD and its consequences compared to other chronic diseases.ObjectiveTo synthesize and present the best available evidence on the effectiveness of CKD self-management interventions in terms of the biomedical, psychosocial, and behavioral aspects of health outcomes.MethodsThree electronic English-language literature databases were searched from inceptions to March 2018. Two reviewers independently selected articles according to pre-specified criteria, critically appraised and extracted data from relevant research. Narrative summaries were presented because the interventions and study features of the included articles were heterogeneous.ResultsOf the five included articles, three were interventional and two were systematic reviews. Effective self-management interventions have beneficial effects on biomedical outcomes such as blood pressure, psychosocial outcomes such as quality of life and self-efficacy, and behavioral outcomes such as CKD knowledge, self-management techniques, and adherence to self-care regimens and treatments.ConclusionsA self-management program that could provide better education and guidance for individuals with CKD is needed, as this would improve the provision of resources and preparations for foreseeable and avoidable CKD complications. The findings from the included articles demonstrate that limited amount of research has focused on CKD management. Additional randomized controlled trials that compare interventions with usual care are needed to determine the efficacy of CKD self-management programs.

AbstractThis study evaluated health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in a Spanish sample of chronic kidney disease patients (n= 90) undergoing different renal replacement therapies, considering the influence of treatment stressors, mood, anxiety and quality of sleep. While all patients had worse physical functioning than controls (p< .01), only those undergoing haemodialysis (HD) showed worse physical well-being, occupational functioning, spiritual fulfillment and more health interference with work (p< .05). They also obtained higher depression scores than renal transplant patients (TX) (p= .005). Those TX receiving the immunosuppressor sirolimus exhibited more cardiac/renal, cognitive and physical limitations than the rest (p< .05). Dialysis vintage correlated positively with sleep disturbances and depression scores and negatively with total Quality of Life (QLI) (p< .05). HD patients experienced more psychological distress than peritoneal dialysis patients (PD) (p= .036). Regression models including sleep, anxiety and depression were estimated for subscales of HRQOL. In TX patients, low depressive scores related to an optimal QLI in almost all subscales, while in HD patients they explained part of the variability in psychological well-being, interpersonal functioning and personal fulfillment. HD condition results in a QLI more distant to the standards of controls.

COVID-19 pandemic has been a major global issue, its eventual influences on the population welfare, global markets, public security, and everyday activities remain uncertain. Indeed, the pandemic has arisen a significant global threat. Its psychological impact is predicted to be severe and enduring, but the absolute magnitude is still largely unclear. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complication markedly contributes to the mortality of COVID-19 cases, meanwhile several studies have demonstrated the high frequency and seriousness of the COVID-19 in CKD patients receiving dialysis. Importantly, the influence of COVID-19 among CKD patients without dialysis is still largely unexplored. Thus, we systemically summarized how mental health affects the spreading of COVID-19 to virtually worldwide, covering perspectives from several countries across a wide range of fields and clinical contexts. This review aims to provide the latest details and reveal potential concerns on the public health including psychological well-being of the older patients with CKD.

Background: Self-management is an important step in preventing and impeding the progression of chronic kidney disease. The effective support and encouragement of self-management in patients with chronic kidney disease is therefore required. The aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a self-management program improving the quality of life on patients with CKD.Method: The literature review used the keywords ‘chronic kidney disease’, ‘self-management program’ and ‘quality of life’. From the article search using “AND” as well, only 8 studies met the inclusion criteria. Across the 8 studies, 592 participants and a mean 147 per trial were included within the middle age group.Discussion: The types intervention were a heterogenous. CKD self-management program, renal education and exercise intervention, the EASE program, the KDE program, and a CKD Educational Program recommended to improve quality of life.Consclusion: The education and exercise intervention had a positive effect on the physical and mental health and well-being of the patients with CKD. Therefore early education about renal disease improves quality of life and treatment outcomes in patients with CKD who are on dialysis.
