Abstract
Healthy kidneys clean your blood and remove extra fluid in the form of urine. They also make substances that keep your body healthy. Dialysis replaces some of these functions when your kidneys no longer work. There are two different types of dialysis - hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. In haemodialysis, a machine filters wastes, salts and fluid from blood when kidneys are no longer healthy enough to do work adequately. Hemodialysis is the most common way to treat advanced kidney failure. The procedure helps to carry on an active life despite failing kidneys. The study was conducted on 60 clients undergoing hemodialysis between the age of 30 – 60 yrs to assess the knowledge of clients regarding management of hemodialysis. Research approach adopted for this study is quantitative approach. Research design is one group pre test and post test design. The findings revealed that 66.67 percent of clients undergoing hemodialysis had average level of knowledge about the management of hemodialysis and now improved to 53.3 percent above average after structured teaching plan. The study found that the structured teaching programme was effective and the knowledge of the clients was upgraded.
