Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study was conducted with 64 patients in the nephrology clinic of a Training and Research Hospital in Istanbul. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, the Chronic Illness Adaptation Scale, and the Self-Management of Chronic Illness Scale. Patients in the intervention group received peer support during their hospital stay, while those in the control group followed the routine clinical process. Participants in the intervention group took part in a structured peer support program, with pre-test data collected through the Self-Care Management Scale in Chronic Illness and the Chronic Illness Adaptation Scale. The program consisted of 4-6 sessions over one week, each lasting 30-45 minutes, focusing on disease information, self-care behaviors, psychosocial coping, and motivation, delivered by trained peers of similar age and gender. Post-test data were collected after the program to assess changes and analyze the effect of structured peer support.
