Background: Sleep disorders frequently affect end-stage renal disease patients on dialysis. However, the relationship between sleep quality and residual kidney function is still unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate this relationship.
Methods: In this analytical cross-sectional study, 225 patients who were referred to dialysis centers were studied, and based on renal function, they were classified into two groups with and without residual kidney function. The study employed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index questionnaire to evaluate sleep quality. Multiple linear regression was utilized to determine the factors affecting sleep quality with a significance level consideration at p<0.05.
Results: The mean age of patients was 58.23 ± 13.50 years. 58.7% of patients were males. The problem of serious and very serious sleep in the Sleep latency and sleep duration has been more than other components. 72% of hemodialysis patients had poor sleep quality. In the multiple linear regression model, age (β = 0.442, 95% CI: 0.096, 0.788), sex (β = -0.847, 95% CI: -1.641, -0.054), Body mass index (β = 0.153, 95% CI: 0.058, 0.249) and dialysis duration (β = 0.097, 95% CI: 0.002, 0.192) were independently and significantly associated with sleep quality score. However, there was no statistically significant relationship between sleep quality and residual kidney function.
Conclusion: In conclusion, poor sleep quality is very common in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Therefore, sleep disorders in hemodialysis patients should be considered as one of the most challenging problems by healthcare providers, and early diagnosis and intervention are essential to improve sleep quality.
