บทคัดย่อ

            This research was a descriptive cross-sectional study, which aimed to examine the relationship between health literacy, personal factors and self-care behavior in patients with end-stage renal disease receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) at Sansai hospital, San Sai district, Chiang Mai province, Thailand. The samples comprised 126 samples obtained by simple random sampling (lottery). The instruments in this study consisted of an interview form for general data, a health literacy assessment form, and a self-care behavior test with content validity approved by three experts, obtaining a CVI of 0.98 and reliability by Cronbach's alpha coefficient; health literacy assessment form = 0.78 and self-care behavior test = 0.86. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics. The relationship between health literacy personal factors and self-care behavior in the samples was analyzed by multiple linear regression.
            The results found that the total score of health literacy was moderate and the overall score of the self-care behavior was moderate. The length of time the diagnosis of kidney disease was significantly related to the self-care behavior (coefficient = -0.19; 95%CI: -0.35; -0.04) and health literacy was significantly related to the self-care behavior (coefficient = 2.95; 95%CI: 2.63; 3.27).
