Abstract:
Objective:The level of frailty index and its change curve in different time periods of initial dialysis patients within 1 year were explored to find the time period of high frailty incidence, providing theoretical basis for timely intervention in the later stage.Methods:This was a longitudinal study. A total of 217 patients diagnosed with end-stage renal disease who underwent dialysis from February 2020 to March 2023 in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were selected as the study objects. The General Data Questionnaire and frailty index were used to conduct questionnaire survey at the first dialysis, 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months, respectively. The frailty index of dialysis patients at different time periods was compared by one-way repeated measure ANOVA and pairwise comparison was made.Results:A total of 176 dialysis patients completed this study. There were 105 males and 71 females, aged <45 years old with 36 cases, aged 45-59 years old with 79 cases, aged >59 years old with 61 cases. The proportion of frailty within 12 months from the first dialysis to regular dialysis was 22.159%(48/176)-40.838%(78/176). The frailty index of dialysis patients at the first dialysis, 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months was (0.194±0.065), (0.203±0.067), (0.219±0.082), (0.259±0.125), (0.231±0.089), (0.198±0.076), (0.192±0.110)points. The results of repeated measurement ANOVA showed that the frailty index of dialysis patients changed significantly at the above 7 time nodes ( F=92.39, P<0.001). The pairwise comparison results showed: there was no statistically significant difference in the frailty index between the first dialysis and 1 month of dialysis in initial dialysis patients ( P>0.05).The frailty index gradually increased after 1 month of dialysis, the frailty index reached the highest level in 3 months of dialysis, and then declined. Besides, the frailty index of patients from 1 month of dialysis to 6 months of regular dialysis was compared pair-to-side. The difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). After 9-12 months of regular dialysis, there was no significant difference in frailty index ( P>0.05). Conclusions:There are different levels of the frailty index in initial dialysis patients from the first dialysis to regular dialysis 12 months. Clinical staff should pay close attention to dialysis patients during the period from the first dialysis to regular dialysis for 6 months, timely identify possible fateful conditions of patients and their effects, and provide active and targeted protective care.
