Abstract：
The adherence of hemodialysis (HD) patients to medical instructions is considered crucial for a longer life expectancy and better quality of life. Despite its importance, there is a remarkable paucity in research dealing with the adherence of patients under HD in Saudi Arabia. The objective of this study was to identify the prevalence of adherence to fluid, diet, medications, and HD sessions among HD patients in Makkah. This was a cross-sectional study in which 361 HD patients were randomly selected from HD centers in three governmental hospitals in Makkah. Individuals were assessed for adherence using the End-Stage Renal Disease Adherence Questionnaire in addition to a clinical examination and laboratory investigations. These methods were used to identify the level of adherence to fluid, diet, medications, and HD sessions. The frequency of adherence of patients was found to be high for dietary guidelines (88.4%), fluid restriction (87.8%), and medications (88.0%), but it was relatively low for adherence to HD sessions (56.0%). The overall adherence rates in the current study population were thought to be within the range of most published international studies.
摘要：
血液透析（HD）患者对医疗指导的依从性被认为对于更长的预期寿命和更好的生活质量至关重要。尽管它很重要,在沙特阿拉伯,关于HD患者依从性的研究非常缺乏.这项研究的目的是确定对液体的依从性的患病率，饮食，药物,麦加HD患者的HD会议。这是一项横断面研究，其中从麦加三家政府医院的HD中心随机选择了361名HD患者。除了临床检查和实验室调查外，还使用终末期肾病依从性问卷评估个体的依从性。这些方法用于确定对液体的粘附水平，饮食，药物,高清会议。饮食指南发现患者的依从性频率很高（88.4％），流体限制(87.8%)，和药物（88.0%），但对HD会话的依从性相对较低(56.0%).当前研究人群的总体依从率被认为在大多数已发表的国际研究的范围内。
