Gambaran Tekanan Darah dan Hemoglobin Pasien Gagal Ginjal Yang Menjalani Terapi Hemodialisis

Abstract

Introduction: Hypertension and anemia are included in the focus of care in chronic renal failure patients
undergoing hemodialysis. This is because the incidence of hypertension and anemia can aggravate kidney
disease and can cause difficulties in kidney patients undergoing hemodialysis.
Objectives: This study aims to determine the blood pressure and hemoglobin levels of patients with chronic
kidney failure undergoing hemodialysis therapy.
Methods: This research is a descriptive study, with a total sample of 48 patients using a side probability
technique with a purposive sampling type and with inclusion criteria: patients aged 18-65 years, male and
female, patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy for more than 3 months, the patient received hemodialysis
therapy twice a week, and the patient was willing to be a respondent.
Results: The mean blood pressure of chronic renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy was 162.5
mmHg (systolic) and 88.5 mmHg (diastolic). Meanwhile, the average hemoglobin level of patients with chronic
renal failure undergoing hemodialysis therapy was 10 g/dl.
Conclusions: The blood pressure of patients with chronic renal failure was categorized as hypertension and the
patient's hemoglobin level was still normal. With the results of this study, it is hoped that it will become a
reference or reference for health workers and researchers in formulating interventions for patients in the
future
