fa تاثیر سرد کردن مایع همودیالیز در کیفیت خواب بیماران همودیالیزی کارآزمایی بالینی Clinical Trials <p><strong><em>Background and Objective:</em></strong> Most patients suffering from kidney failure who undergo dialysis for a long time have complaints of sleep disorders. Sleep disorders in these patients accompany some serious complications that reduce quality of life and increase mortality. Nowadays most treatments&nbsp; are pharmaceutical drugs, which have many side effects and aren&rsquo;t cost benefit<span dir="RTL"> </span>. The aim of this study was to survey the effect of cool hemodialysis on improving sleep quality in hemodialysis patients.</p> <p><strong><em>Materials and Methods:</em></strong> This was a pre-post test, quasi experimental study that was performed in Semnan Fatemiyeh hospital. 23 patients were purposefully selected. Data collection was performed using demographic questionnaires, patients&rsquo; medical records and Pittsburgh Sleep Index. Patients underwent standard hemodialysis (37&deg;^c) 3 times weekly, for 4 weeks, and afterwards they underwent cool hemodialysis (35&deg;^c), in the same circumstances and time intervals. Paired t-test and Wilcoxon tests were used for statistical data analysis.</p> <p><strong><em>Results:</em></strong> Results showed that the mean and standard deviation of patient age was 60.2 &plusmn; 14.6 years. 47.8% patients required dialysis due to diabetes, 17.4% due to hypertension, 13% due to congenital disease<strong>s</strong> and glomerulonephritis. Sleep quality (P<0.001) in cool hemodialysis was improved significantly in comparison to standard hemodialysis (P<0.05).</p> <p><strong><em>Conclusion:</em></strong> Cool hemodialysis (instead of standard hemodialysis) could improve sleep quality thus improving quality of life in dialysis patients.</p> <p></p><p></p> <div> <hr align="left" size="1" width="33%" > <div> <div id="_com_1">&nbsp; <p dir="RTL"></p></div> </div> </div> Cool Renal Dialysis, Warm Renal Dialysis, Sleep Disorders, Chronic Renal Failure 128 138 http://journal.zums.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-4-1029&slc_lang=fa&sid=1 Mohsen Soleimani محسن سلیمانی 5200319475328460053292 5200319475328460053292 No Faculty of Nursing, Semnan University of Medical Sciences, Semnan, Iran دانشکده‌ی پرستاری و پیراپزشکی، دانشگاه علوم پزشکی سمنان، سمنان Mohammadreza Asgari محمد رضا عسگری 5200319475328460053293 5200319475328460053293 No Faculty of Nursing, Semnan University of Medical Sciences, Semnan, Iran دانشکده‌ی پرستاری و پیراپزشکی، دانشگاه علوم پزشکی سمنان، سمنان Ali Imani علی ایمانی 5200319475328460053294 5200319475328460053294 Yes Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery, Zanjan University of Medical Siences, Zanjan, Iran دانشکده‌ی پرستاری و مامایی، دانشگاه علوم پزشکی زنجان، زنجان Mohammadreza Tammadon محمدرضا تمدن 5200319475328460053295 5200319475328460053295 No Dept. of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine, Semnan University of Medical Sciences, Semnan, Iran دانشکده‌ی پزشکی، دانشگاه علوم پزشکی سمنان، سمنان
