The relationship between family motivation and quality of life in hemodialysis patients: An analysis of hospital dialysis services
Keywords:
hemodialysis, motivationAbstract
Background: Quality of life is a crucial theme in the lives of individuals undergoing hemodialysis. A strong family motivation is positively associated with the physical and psychological well-being of patients receiving hemodialysis therapy. Methods: This study employed a descriptive-analytic approach with a cross-sectional research design and utilized the Spearman's rank correlation test for statistical analysis. The sample consisted of 45 patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy at Public Hospital (RSUD P). The results showed that the majority of respondents received strong motivation from their families, with 26 respondents (57.8%), and most of the respondents had a good quality of life, with 29 respondents (64.4%). The statistical test results indicated a significant correlation, with p-values of 0.010 and 0.038 (α = 0.05). Findings: Social support emphasizes that emotional, informational, and instrumental assistance from the family can significantly influence the quality of life of patients. In the context of hemodialysis, family support may include motivational encouragement, assistance with treatment adherence, and emotional presence. Such support can enhance a sense of connectedness and reduce stress, which in turn can improve the patient’s quality of life. Strong family motivation can foster more positive relationships with the patient, provide encouragement for personal growth, and help patients feel more connected to their life purpose—all of which contribute to an improved quality of life. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between family motivation and the quality of life of patients undergoing hemodialysis. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study highlights the specific role of family motivation in improving the quality of life of hemodialysis patients within the context of a Regional Public Hospital. By integrating qualitative and quantitative methods, it offers practical insights and theoretical contributions to the development of family motivation concepts in chronic illness care.
