This study aimed to determine the relationship of death anxiety with quality of life and social support in hemodialysis patients. This cross-sectional research was conducted on 226 patients with chronic renal failure. The results indicated that the means and standard deviations of MSPSS, QoL, and death anxiety of patients were 57.4 ± 10.1, 28.8 ± 5.9, and 42.5 ± 4.1, respectively. A significant negative correlation was found between QoL scores and death anxiety in hemodialysis patients ( = 0.007, r = -0.179). However, there was no statistically significant relationship between MSPSS scores and patients' death anxiety. The total score of patients' death anxiety decreased with increasing the total QoL score ( < 0.001, b = -0.18). Different variables that can affect death anxiety and QoL should be identified in the patient examination process. Also, the health care system should consider necessary planning to increase the QoL and reduce death anxiety.
本研究旨在确定血液透析患者死亡焦虑与生活质量及社会支持之间的关系。这项横断面研究针对226例慢性肾衰竭患者开展。结果表明，患者的医学社会支持量表（MSPSS）、生活质量（QoL）及死亡焦虑的均值和标准差分别为57.4±10.1、28.8±5.9和42.5±4.1。血液透析患者的生活质量得分与死亡焦虑之间存在显著负相关（P = 0.007，r = -0.179）。然而，MSPSS得分与患者死亡焦虑之间无统计学显著关系。患者死亡焦虑总分随生活质量总分的增加而降低（P < 0.001，b = -0.18）。在患者检查过程中应识别出可影响死亡焦虑和生活质量的不同变量。此外，医疗保健系统应考虑进行必要规划，以提高生活质量并降低死亡焦虑。
