Calidad de vida de los familiares de los pacientes con insuficiencia renal en relación con la percepción de la atención recibida de un Centro de Diálisis Peritoneal.

Abstract

The present investigation is of correlational type, it analyzes some variables that characterize and identify the relationship to determine if the perception of the care received from the peritoneal dialysis center affects the quality of life of the relatives of patients with renal failure. The Quality of Care in Peritoneal Dialysis Services is evaluated to determine how this perception affects the quality of life of relatives of patients with chronic renal failure. For this, quantitative analysis methods were used through the application of a structured questionnaire and the factorial analysis of variables to establish the relationship between them. The results determine that the attention received does not affect the quality of life of the relatives of the patients, since when performing the multivariate factor analysis it is observed that the variables are independent. The mood of the family is caused by the stress that arises from having a patient with a chronic degenerative disease. Finally, it is concluded that, in order to improve these conditions, it is necessary to create a support network for relatives of patients with Renal Insufficiency.
