| description | Studies addressing the nature of relationship between psychological symptoms and quality of life among
dialysis patients in Malaysia are scarce. Hence, this study is intended to investigate the association
between psychological symptoms such as depression, anxiety and stress on the quality of life in dialysis
patients. A cross sectional multicentre study was conducted from May to October 2012 at 15 centres that
provide haemodialysis and/or peritoneal dialysis. Apart from socio-demographic profile data collection,
WHOQOL-BREF and DASS21 questionnaires were administered to study subjects. All three psychological
symptoms had significant impact on quality of life domains of physical health, psychological health,
social impact, perceived environment and overall quality of life. These findings suggest that subjects
with symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress had poorer quality of life than those without,
highlighting the negative impact of psychological symptoms. |
