Abstract
This study was conducted methodologically to determine the reliability and the validity of the Turkish version of the hemodialysis self-management scale in hemodialysis patients in Turkey. The study was conducted with 200 patients who received hemodialysis treatment between October 2022 and April 2023. Data were collected using a Patient Information Form and the Hemodialysis Self-Management Instrument. To test the reliability of the scale, the internal consistency coefficient Cronbach's Alpha, McDonald Omega, and test-retest reliability coefficients were calculated. Confirmatory factor analysis was performed to evaluate the validity. Unlike the original version, the scale consisted of 11 items and 4 subscales and showed an acceptable fit. The Cronbach alpha coefficient was 0.89; the McDonald Omega coefficient was 0.90. The hemodialysis self-management instrument is a reliable and valid scale in Turkey.
期刊介绍：
The aim of the Journal of Artificial Organs is to introduce to colleagues worldwide a broad spectrum of important new achievements in the field of artificial organs, ranging from fundamental research to clinical applications. The scope of the Journal of Artificial Organs encompasses but is not restricted to blood purification, cardiovascular intervention, biomaterials, and artificial metabolic organs. Additionally, the journal will cover technical and industrial innovations. Membership in the Japanese Society for Artificial Organs is not a prerequisite for submission.
