Abstract:
Background and Aims
The provision of comfort is an essential part of nursing care and the main desire of patients during hospital admission. This study was conducted to determine the current and expected status of patient comfort in hemodialysis patients.
Materials and Methods
This study was descriptive-comparative. 290 hemodialysis patients were selected in hospitals affiliated to Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences, Sanandaj, Iran, 2016. Data were collected using a demographic form and Kolkaba questionnaire, which included two parts of the existing and expected condition of comfort. Data were collected after the validity and reliability of the questionnaire. Data were analyzed using SPSS 21 software
Results
The participants believed that the best current status of affairs was in domains of mental-spiritual (33.63) and then socio-cultural (29.23), and the weakest in the domain of environment (21.82). Patients had the highest expectations in providing psychological-spiritual (37.5) and minimal excitement in the environment (25.7).
Conclusion
The results of this study showed that patients had the lowest level of comfort in the environmental field and were most expected to maintain comfort in the spiritual domain. Therefore, it is recommended that nurses of the hemodialysis department pay more attention to providing environmental comfort and physical and mental-spiritual care.
