Özet
Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of warm water footbaths on comfort, fatigue, and dialysis symptoms in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Methods: Data were collected from a total of 58 patients, 31 in the intervention group and 27 in the placebo group. The data in the study are collected using the intervention and control group informed volunteer Form, Patient Demonstration Form, foot Bath Application Monitoring Chart, fatigue VAS Scale Form, Dialysis Symptom Index, and Hemodialysis Comfort Scale (HCS). Results: In the second follow-up in the intervention group, HCS was determined to significantly increase all sub-size and total score averages by the first trace (p < 0.05). VAS fatigue point averages were significantly lower (p < 0.05) in the intervention group. Conclusion: It was determined that the footbath applied to patients who received hemodialysis treatment increased comfort and reduced fatigue and dialysis symptoms. © 2023 International Society for Apheresis and Japanese Society for Apheresis.
