Özet
Aim: Physical inactivity is associated with the increased incidence of hospitalizations, increased risk of mortality due to heart
diseases in hemodialysis patients. The aim of study was to evaluate the functional and physical activity levels of chronic renal failure
patients receiving hemodialysis treatment.
Material and Methods: 96 of whom were hemodialysis patients (63,22 ± 12,84 years) and 107 (51,07 ± 8,33 years) healthy people,
participated to the study. The functional activity level was assessed with the Human Activity Profile. The level of physical activity was
determined with the Turkish version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form.
Results: When the hemodialysis patients and the control group were compared in terms of the functional activity and physical
activity level after controlled the age variable, Maximum Activity Score (MAS) and the Adjusted Activity Score (AAS) values and
Turkish version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) levels of the hemodialysis group were significantly lower
(p<0.05). When the activity levels of the hemodialysis group were compared by gender, the Adjusted Activity Score values of females
were significantly lower (p<0.05), and the Turkish version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form daily activity
levels and Maximum Activity Score values were similar (p> 0.05).
Conclusion: The functional and physical activity levels of chronic renal patients receiving hemodialysis treatment were significantly
lower. We believe that the results of our study give a small idea of the possible functional limitations and physical inactivity of the
dialysis patients in our country.
