| Summary: | Objective: The study was aimed posttraumatic growth levels of patients treated with peritoneal dialysis. Methods: The study included 100 patients receiving peritoneal dialysis treatment. The data was collected using the diagnostic information form and Posttraumatic Growth Scale. Results: Patients scored less than average from the " Change in Philosophy of Life " subscale. It was observed that the scale total score and subscale scores were higher in the middle age group than in other age groups, in those who were illiterate compared to high school graduates, in those who were not working than in those who were employed, in those whose income was equal to their expenses compared to those whose income was less than their expenses (p<0.05). Patients who were diagnosed and treated for 1-4 years and had the same disease and additional disease in their family were found to have a lower overall scale score (p<0.05). Conclusion: Training patients with less posttraumatic development groups to manage symptoms, acquire a new philosophy of life, and empower patients with developmental behaviors can support growth and development after the trauma. |
