Abstract

Chronic kidney disease is a disorder of kidney function that is progressive and irreversible. Patients with dialysis therapy may not improve survival and might damage the quality of life. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of family-supportive therapy on the quality of life of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis. The research design used pre-experimental One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The data were obtained from 88 respondents of chronic kidney disease who undergoing hemodialysis at Soegiri general hospital of Lamongan in March 2018 by using quality of life questionnaire WHOQOL-BREF. The data analysis used the Wilcoxon test with a significance level of P less than 0.05. The results showed that before being given family supportive therapy, the quality of life was moderate, and after treatment, the quality of life was high. Based on the Wilcoxon test results, it was obtained the value of Z = -5.196 with a value of p = 0.000. This shows that there is an effect of supportive therapy on the quality of life of patients with chronic kidney disease. Nurses can provide support for the patient’s independence in modifying lifestyles by involving the family’s active role in improving the quality of life of patients.
