The rising prevalence of chronic kidney disease poses a future challenge for healthcare and the economy. For patients diagnosed with kidney failure, hemodialysis is the sole recourse until a suitable renal donor is acquired, exerting a discernible impact on the overall quality of life. Yoga and meditation emerge as pivotal elements in enhancing quality of life (QoL), significantly influencing diverse aspects of well-being. The study aimed to identify the effectiveness of yoga and meditation on QoL among hemodialysis patients. An experimental research design with one group pretest - post-test on 100 participants was conducted in Muljibhai Patel Urology Hospital, Nadiad. Pre-tests were conducted on day 1, followed by a 12-week yoga and meditation program with a post-test. Data analysis utilised SPSS-20 software, employing descriptive and inferential statistics. Yoga and meditation effectively demonstrated improvement in QoL in each domain (p < 0.001.) post-intervention. These results emphasize QoL enhancement after incorporating these practices into hemodialysis care.
慢性肾脏病患病率的上升给医疗保健和经济带来了未来的挑战。对于被诊断为肾衰竭的患者，在获得合适的肾脏供体之前，血液透析是唯一的 recourse，对整体生活质量产生明显影响。瑜伽和冥想成为提高生活质量（QoL）的关键因素，对幸福的各个方面有显著影响。该研究旨在确定瑜伽和冥想对血液透析患者生活质量的有效性。在纳迪亚德的穆尔吉布hai帕特尔泌尿外科医院对 100 名参与者进行了一组前测 - 后测的实验研究设计。在第 1 天进行前测，随后进行为期 12 周的瑜伽和冥想计划并进行后测。数据分析使用 SPSS - 20 软件，采用描述性和推断性统计。干预后，瑜伽和冥想有效地证明了每个领域的生活质量都有改善（p < 0.001）。这些结果强调了将这些做法纳入血液透析护理后生活质量的提高。
