Abstract
Effective management of end stage renal disease for individuals undergoing hemodialysis (HD) requires the acquisition of self-care abilities, which have been shown to improve outcomes. Studies have indicated that educational interventions improve self-care abilities in patients with chronic kidney failure. A self-care coaching intervention was designed to bridge this gap. To evaluate, we utilized a pre-test/post-test quasi-experimental design using the Self Care for Adults on Dialysis (SCAD) tool. This was administered prior to, four months, and one year after the intervention. Results demonstrated improvement in self-care related to vascular access and fluid management, both significant aspects of being HD-dependent.
