The aim of this work was to assess the quality of life of 87 patients older than 60 years, out of 200 undergoing chronic hemodialysis in 9 centers at Santiago. A visual analog scale, with scores ranging from 0 (bad) to 100 (optimal) and a specific questionnaire about the impact of hemodialysis in daily activities, with scores ranging from -10 (severe limitation) to +10 (no limitation) were applied to patients and their attending nurses. Using the visual analog scale, patients assessed their quality of life in 51.7%, and health personnel in 61.3%. Patients had a questionnaire score of 2.3. Quality of life scores were inversely correlated with the condition of being diabetic and the number of hospital admissions.
这项研究的目的是评估圣地亚哥9个中心接受慢性血液透析的200名患者中87名60岁以上患者的生活质量。对患者及其护理人员使用了视觉模拟量表（分数范围为0分（差）至100分（最佳））以及一份关于血液透析对日常活动影响的特定问卷（分数范围为-10分（严重受限）至+10分（无受限））。使用视觉模拟量表，患者对其生活质量的评估占51.7%，医护人员的评估占61.3%。患者的问卷得分为2.3分。生活质量得分与糖尿病病情及住院次数呈负相关。
