RESUMO
Hemodialysis patients need to acquire exercise habits because physical inactivity in hemodialysis patients is associated with increased mortality. However, factors associated with exercise habits in hemodialysis patients are unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors related to exercise habits in hemodialysis patients. We measured 104 hemodialysis patients' exercise habits (transtheoretical model：TTM), laboratory data, self-efficacy (SE), short physical performance battery and grip strength, nutritional index, dialysis vintage, fluid removal, and Kt/V. Multiple linear regression analysis was carried out to assess the association of the aforementioned factors with TTM. As a result, in multiple linear regression analysis, SE, age, and Kt/V were associated with TTM (R2＝0.34, p＜0.05). hemodialysis patients may require mental support, such as SE and adequate dialysis dose, to acquire exercise habits.
