“…Some studies supported our study regarding the relationship between age and treatment adherence. Sheikh et al (2022), Varghese (2021, Rafiee-Vardanjani et al (2013), andKhalili et al (2011) found a significant relationship between hemodialysis patients' age and treatment adherence, so that older patients were more adherent than younger patients. They also found an association between income, sex, education, marital status, and treatment adherence that was not consistent with our results.…”

BackgroundEnd-stage renal disease is a life-threatening condition in which patients require dialysis or kidney transplant. These patients must adhere to the treatment regimen because treatment non-adherence affects their quality of life and health. We conducted this study to predict hemodialysis patients’ treatment adherence based on procrastination and difficulty in emotion regulation.Materials and methodsWe conducted this descriptive correlational study on 218 hemodialysis patients with chronic kidney disease. We used purposive sampling to select participants from six dialysis centers in Kerman, Sirjan, and Rafsanjan. The measuring tools included the end-stage renal disease adherence questionnaire, general procrastination scale, decisional procrastination scale, and difficulty in emotion regulation scale. We used the correlation coefficient, regression analysis, and SPSS18 to analyze data.ResultsOur study indicated that among the dimensions of treatment adherence, medication use had a significant, weak, and inverse relationship with general and decisional procrastination. We also found a significant, weak, and inverse relationship between attendance and general procrastination (p < 0.05 and p < 0.01). But there is no significant relationship between treatment adherence, general procrastination, and decisional procrastination (p > 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis revealed a relationship between age, the cause of kidney failure, and treatment adherence (p = 0.01 and p = 0.02).ConclusionTreatment non-adherence causes problems and complications in hemodialysis Patients, and disrupts their course of treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the factors influencing non-adherence of patients undergoing hemodialysis and improve their treatment adherence, and thus their quality of life.

“…Furthermore, adherence to therapy holds significant importance for individuals undergoing hemodialysis. In a study conducted by Varghese (2021), it was found that patients diagnosed with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) experienced elevated rates of hospitalization and mortality when they encountered instances of abbreviated or missed dialysis treatments. Dialysis patients aged equal to or more than the results of the statistical analysis indicated a considerable disparity between the two groups, suggesting that individuals aged 60 and above exhibited higher levels of dedication compared to those aged 18 to 59.…”

The presence of social support and medication adherence have a significant impact on the management of chronic renal disease. Aim:The objective of this study was to assess the correlation between sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, perceived social support, and treatment adherence in hemodialysis patients at a provincial hospital in Biliran during the last quarter of 2022. Methods:The present study employed a quantitative research approach utilizing a descriptive-correlational design. Data collection was conducted through the administration of a three-part survey questionnaire. Results:The study's findings indicate a moderate correlation between the job position's sociodemographic profile and the perceived social support from significant others. Similarly, a moderate correlation was observed between the clinical profile of the kind of vascular utilized and the perceived social support from significant others. Astrong and statistically significant association was seen between marital status and compliance with therapy. There was a lack of statistically significant correlation seen between the perceived level of social support and adherence to medication, attendance at hemodialysis sessions, and adherence to food and fluid restrictions in the context of therapy. In general, the findings indicate a lack of statistically meaningful association between perceived social support and treatment adherence. Conclusion:The perceived social support of a significant other is influenced by both employment level and the type of vascular used. When an individual secures employment and develops an arteriovenous fistula, it leads to a heightened perception of social support from their significant other. Consequently, an adherence improvement strategy was established
