Journal Title: Health, Spirituality and Medical Ethics - Year 2019, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Chronic renal failure is a health problem that affects the patient's life in alternative renal therapies, including hemodialysis. Hemodialysis is a stressful process and the most important factor causing tension in these patients is a reduction in hope for life. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the role of trust in God and resilience in the hope for life of hemodialysis patients. Methods: The statistical population of the present descriptive correlational study consisted of 227 hemodialysis patients in Khatamolanbia (n=107) and Ali-ibn Abi Talib (n=120) hospitals in Zahedan, Iran, during the first three months of 2018. Based on Morgan table, 140 cases were selected through the convenience sampling method. The data were collected using Trust in God Questionnaire by Bolhari et al., Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and Hope Scale by Snyder and Anderson. Finally, the data were analyzed by SPSS software (version 22) and Pearson’s correlation coefficient to test the hypotheses and multiple regression were utilized. P-value was considered statistically significant in the present study (P<0.01). Results: According to the obtained results, the hope for life showed a positive and significant correlation with trust in God and resilience in hemodialysis patients. Furthermore, the resilience and trust in God predicted the hope for life of hemodialysis patients. Conclusion: The results of the present study revealed the importance of trust in God and resilience in the hope for life of hemodialysis patients in the process of treatment improvement.
