This study examined the relationship between physical activity patterns and quality of life among hemodialysis patients. While undergoing hemodialysis, 19 patients (31-82 years; 60.2 +/- 17.4 yrs, mean +/- SD) completed a physical activity and the Short-Form 36 (SF-36) questionnaire. Individuals were separated into either a high- or low-energy expenditure group. The high-energy expenditure group had significantly higher total SF-36 scores (58.35 +/- 4.49 vs. 42.85 +/- 3.86, mean +/- SE, p = 0.028) and physical functioning scores (62.22 +/- 8.00 vs. 27.14 +/- 3.16, mean +/- SE, p = 0.002) compared to individuals in the low-energy expenditure group. Members in the high-energy group tended to score higher on social functioning, general health, and role limitations. Increasing weekly energy expenditure, either through physical activity or household tasks, may increase quality of life and overall level of physical functioning in patients with end stage renal disease.
本研究调查了血液透析患者的身体活动模式与生活质量之间的关系。在进行血液透析期间,19名患者(年龄31 - 82岁;平均年龄60.2±17.4岁,均值±标准差)完成了一份身体活动问卷和简短健康调查问卷36项版本(SF - 36)。研究对象被分为高能量消耗组或低能量消耗组。与低能量消耗组相比,高能量消耗组的SF - 36总分(58.35±4.49 vs. 42.85±3.86,均值±标准误,p = 0.028)和身体功能得分(62.22±8.00 vs. 27.14±3.16,均值±标准误,p = 0.002)显著更高。高能量组的成员在社会功能、总体健康和角色受限方面得分往往更高。通过身体活动或家务劳动增加每周的能量消耗,可能会提高终末期肾病患者的生活质量和身体功能总体水平。
