Background:
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) poses a growing public health concern, affecting up to 10% of adults worldwide.
Aim & Objective:
This study aims to assess psychiatric morbidities and associated risk factors among chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis.
Methodology:
An observational cross-sectional study was conducted among 100 cases, both male and female patients diagnosed with Chronic kidney disease attending Dialysis Center of the General Medicine Department in a tertiary care hospital within the age group of 18 to 60 years. A systemic randomized technique was employed for patient selection, involving every second CKD patient. After obtaining permission from the Institutional Ethical Committee and Informed written consent from participants, a pretested questionnaire was administered. Data was entered in MS Excel and analyzed using SPSS software.
Results:
In this study 24% of participants found with mild depression, 25% had moderate, 17% had severe depression and 13% had very severe depression. Additionally, 14% with mild anxiety, 23% had mild to moderate anxiety, and 20% had moderate to severe anxiety.
Conclusion:
The overall prevalence of depression and anxiety among CKD patients undergoing dialysis was found to be 79% and 57% respectively.
