Clinical Trial Summary
Chronic Renal Failure (CRF); The result of a decrease in the glomerular filtration value is
defined as a chronic and progressive deterioration in the fluid-solute balance of the kidney
and metabolic-endocrine functions. Treatment is kidney transplant or dialysis. CRF affects
10-15% of adults worldwide. CRF rate in the general adult population in Turkey is 15.7%.
According to the data of the Turkish Nephrology Association, renal replacement therapy (RRT)
is applied to a total of 77,311 patients in our country by the end of 2017. The most common
(76%) applied RRT type is hemodialysis treatment. In individuals receiving hemodialysis
treatment, nausea-vomiting, weakness, fatigue, itching, fluid-solute imbalances, hypotension
and pain can be seen due to uremia. This situation reduces the functionality of the patient
and the limitation of physical activities brings physical and psycho-social effects with it.
The dependence of the individual on the dialysis machine, the healthcare team and the family
in treatment programs that last three days a week, on average four hours a day, affects the
personal lives of the patients. It can be said that nursing care and education are of great
importance in resolving the existing or potential problems of patients who are dependent on
hemodialysis as a result of CRF, and in adapting patients to life with their disease. It is
the nursing theories that will guide these attempts of nurses. Because nursing theories
interpret and define the profession; thus helping nurses in training, practice and research
activities as a professional. Nursing Model of Roper, Logan-Tierney (RLT), one of the
important theories of nursing, is based on the life model. In this model, the main purpose of
nursing is to ensure that people are informed so that they can lead a quality and healthy
life. This model, which can be integrated into all service areas of the health care system
and handles individual-centered care with a humanistic and holistic approach, supports the
participation of the individual in care. It is predicted that the patient education program
created using the Nursing Model of RLT will support the increase of the independence levels
and self-care abilities of individuals who receive hemodialysis treatment.
Description:
Chronic Renal Failure (CRF); The result of a decrease in the glomerular filtration value is
defined as a chronic and progressive deterioration in the fluid-solute balance of the kidney
and metabolic-endocrine functions. CRF is an irreversible, progressive disease involving many
systems. Its treatment is kidney transplant or dialysis. CRF affects 10-15% of adults
worldwide. In other words, one out of every six adults has CRF. CRF rate in the general adult
population in Turkey is 15.7%. According to the data of the Turkish Nephrology Association,
renal replacement therapy (RRT) is applied to a total of 77,311 patients in our country as of
the end of 2017. The most common (76%) applied RRT type is hemodialysis treatment. In
individuals receiving hemodialysis treatment, nausea-vomiting, weakness, fatigue, itching,
fluid-solute imbalances, hypotension and pain can be seen due to uremia. This situation
reduces the functionality of the patient and the limitation of physical activities brings
physical and psycho-social effects with it. The dependence of the person on the dialysis
machine, the healthcare team and the family in the treatment programs that last three days a
week, an average of four hours a day, affects the personal lives of the patients. It can be
said that nursing care and education are of great importance in resolving the existing or
potential problems of patients whose CRF result is due to hemodialysis, and in adapting
patients to life with their disease. It is the nursing theories that will guide these
attempts of nurses. Because nursing theories interpret and define the profession; thus
helping nurses in training, practice, research activities as a professional. Nursing Model of
Roper, Logan-Tierney (RLT), one of the important theories of nursing, is based on the life
model. In this model, the main purpose of nursing is to ensure that people are informed so
that they can lead a quality and healthy life. In the "Nursing Model" developed by RLT based
on the Life Model, they focused on providing nursing care based on human characteristics,
believed in the necessity of observations and measurable events and activities, and based
their nursing services on these beliefs. This model, which can be integrated into all service
areas of the health care system and handles individual-centered care with a humanistic and
holistic approach, supports the participation of the individual in care. It is predicted that
the patient education program created using the Nursing Model of RLT will support the
increase of the independence levels and self-care abilities of individuals who receive
hemodialysis treatment. In this study, it is planned to evaluate the effect of the education
given to individuals receiving hemodialysis based on Roper, Logan-Tierney's Nursing Model on
the level of independence and self-care ability in daily living activities.
Research for the development of the nursing profession contributes to the knowledge of
nursing science by developing and testing nursing models / theories. In the literature, it is
seen that the use of the Nursing Model of RLT is limited only by mentioning the content of
the theory in certain parts of the study rather than reflecting it on the whole study. There
are no extensive explanations about the model and enough information about how it can be used
in practice. It has been determined that postgraduate studies conducted using the Nursing
Model of RLT are mostly descriptive studies. However, nursing theories and models should be
used effectively in research and practice. When the studies on individuals who receive
hemodialysis treatment are examined, it has been determined that the use of the Nursing Model
of RLT is very low. It is predicted that the patient education program created using this
Nursing Model will support the increase of the independence levels and self-care abilities of
individuals who receive hemodialysis treatment.
At the end of the patient education program based on the Nursing Model of RLT, individuals
who receive hemodialysis treatment will increase their independence levels and self-care
abilities in daily living activities. It will be ensured that caregiving healthcare
professionals perform hemodialysis treatment with less stress.
