Relationships Among Personal Factors, Health Literacy, and Self-care Behaviors in Delaying Disease Progression Among Pre-Dialysis Stage Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
Keywords:

The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to explore the relationships between personal factors, health literacy, and self-care behaviors in delaying disease progression in pre-dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease. The sample was patients with chronic kidney disease who were in the pre-dialysis stage of disease progression in an urban area in Maha Sarakham Province, Thailand. The sample of 74 patients was selected using multi-stage sampling. Research instruments used were 1) a personal information questionnaire, 2) The Health Literacy Scale, and 3) The Self-Care Behavior Assessment Form for delaying chronic kidney disease progression. The research was conducted between September 2018 and February 2019. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson's product moment coefficients.
The results revealed that the sample had a moderate level of health literacy (Mean = 43.78 ± 5.63) and self-care behaviors for delaying chronic kidney disease progression (Mean = 92.11 ± 1.59). It was also found that health literacy was significant positively correlated with self-care behaviors for delaying chronic kidney disease progression at a p level of .05 (r = .348; p < .05). The results of this study can be used as the basis for providing health information based on the level of health literacy of patients with chronic kidney disease. This will enable the patients to be able to engage in proper self-care behaviors and further delay the progression of chronic kidney disease.
