Subjective measures of physical health associated with survival in hemodialysis patients
Abstract
A retrospective analysis of survival of 125 haemodialysis patients was carried out. Evaluation of quality of life (using the SF-36 scoring method) and assessment of clinical and demographic variables have been performed the initial time point of the study. The aim of the work was to assess the predictive value of quality of life scores and clinical data. Quality of life scoring correlated significantly with survival rate. In the group of patients who died during the period of observation (n = 46) the baseline quality of life scores were significantly lower than in the group of survivals. Patient’s self-assessed physical functioning and physical summary score were found to be significant independent predictors of survival as well as the mean ultrafiltration volume, serum albumin level and Са-Р product. No significant correlation was found between the mental health scores and survival rate.
