Hemodialysis patients in Korea increased 2.3 fold from 2008 to 2018 and continues to rise 7% to 10% annually. Long-term treatment to prevent complications requires understanding patients' hemodialysis-life balance. Our purpose was to explore the process of life reorganization by hemodialysis patients from Korea.
Grounded theory methodology was utilized. Participants were hemodialysis patients recruited from four hemodialysis centers in Korea. Data were collected by in-depth individual interviews. Data were analyzed using constant comparative method with theoretical saturation.
Participants ( = 14) experienced four phases with transitions. A traditional Korean belief system, the view of blessing-focused destiny promoted a change in perspective from the focus on a life crisis, and thereby, played a role in buffering negative experience.
Nurses should assess the cultural individual needs of patients, which change according to each phase of life reorganization, and provide the right care at the right time to increase positive experiences.
2008年至2018年期间，韩国接受血液透析的患者数量增长了2.3倍，并且每年继续以7%至10%的速度增长。长期治疗以预防并发症需要了解患者的血液透析生活平衡。我们的目的是探讨韩国血液透析患者生活重组的过程。
采用扎根理论方法。参与者是从韩国四个血液透析中心招募的血液透析患者。通过深入的个人访谈收集数据。使用持续比较法和理论饱和度对数据进行分析。
参与者（n = 14）经历了四个阶段并伴有转变。韩国传统信仰体系，即以福佑为中心的命运观促进了视角从关注生活危机的转变，从而在缓冲负面经历方面发挥了作用。
护士应评估患者的文化个体需求，这些需求会根据生活重组的每个阶段而变化，并在正确的时间提供正确的护理，以增加积极体验。
