Abstract
Hemodialysis is a procedure used to clean the blood of people whose kidneys are not functioning properly. Duration of dialysis is 4-6 hours, twice or thrice a week. Hemodialysis cleans the kidneys of waste products including urea and creatinine along with free water extracorporeal, which slows the progression of kidney failure. The observational study included 80 patients who received hemodialysis.Our study was conducted on 80 patients out of which were found to be males (61.25%) and were found to be females (38.75%). The majority of the patients there (28.75%) were between the ages of 51 and 60. Among 80 patients, complications were reported in 64 (80%) patients. Commonly reported complications were weakness, muscle cramps and fever. Out of 80 patients, 16 patients (20.0%) were having long-term hypertension and 12 patients (15%) were having both hypertension and diabetes as co-morbidity. Participants in our study reported that the above-mentioned problems significantly lower the life quality in terms of the health.
