The Exploratory Study on Recreation Activity and Physical Activity of Hemodialysis Patients

[[abstract]]本研究目的探討血液透析患者在接受血液透析治療後，參與休閒與體能活動之情形與影響因素。受試者為北部某區域教學醫院126位血液透析患者，採問卷調查法。結果顯示在休閒活動參與，患者接受血液透析後，參與休閒活動類型中，依序排列前三項為看電視、散步、運動，拜訪親友休閒類型為最少。參與休閒活動的同伴中，57.8%患者是自己一個人自行活動。休閒活動頻率，38.5%患者在一週有三次以上的休閒活動。體能活動參與中，接受血液透析治療後，無規律體能活動患者佔47.6%，有規律體能活動患者佔52.4%；患者認為參與規律的體能活動，最主要的效益可提高體能；患者未能參與規律體能活動的主要原因是認為自己生病。最佳促進參與體能活動方式，為患者家人和朋友的鼓勵。 This study explores hemodialysis patients' participation in recreational activity and physical activity after hemodialysis treatment as well as the influencing factors involved. The questionnaire survey method was used with 126 hemodialysis patients at a teaching hospital somewhere in northern Taiwan. The findings suggested that the top three recreational activities for hemodialysis patients after hemodialysis were watching television, walking and exercise. Visiting was the least common type of recreation. As for the choice of companions during recreation, 57% were by themselves. For the frequency of recreational activity, 38.5% of patients engaged in recreational activities at least three times a week. For physical activity after hemodialysis, 47.6% of patients did not engage in regular physical activity while 52.4% did. Patients felt that the most important benefit of regular physical activity was improved energy levels. Patients that did not participate in regular physical activity felt that they were ill. The best method for encouraging participation in physical activity was the support of the patient's family and friends
