The Effect of Peer Support on Disease Adaptation and Self-Care Ability in Individuals Diagnosed With Chronic Kidney Failure

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study was designed as an interventional, pretest-posttest controlled trial to examine the effects of peer interaction on disease adaptation and self-care ability in patients newly diagnosed with chronic kidney failure and starting dialysis. The main hypothesis: H1: Structured peer support provided to patients receiving hemodialysis treatment has a positive effect on their level of adaptation to the disease. H2: Structured peer support provided to patients receiving hemodialysis treatment has a positive effect on their self-care power. Researchers will compare control group to see if adaptation to the dieases and self-care power. Patients in the intervention group received peer support during their hospital stay, while those in the control group followed the routine clinical process.
