Knowledge and self-care in patients with home peritoneal dialysis in Ayacucho, 2023

Abstract

Kidney disease constitutes a serious public health problem, due to the effects it has on the health and life of the human beings who are affected. For this reason, this study has been proposed as the General Objective: To determine the relationship between the level of knowledge and self-care in patients with home peritoneal dialysis in Ayacucho, 2023. Materials and Methods: the study will be supported by applied, hypothetical research. deductive, non-experimental, cross-sectional and correlational, which will demonstrate that the relationships between the two study variables are feasible and whose instrument measurements (surveys/questionnaires) will be reliable as they are applied and validated in Peru by Pardo's work in the year 2022. The population will be made up of 80 patients with Home Peritoneal Dialysis in Ayacucho. The validation of the instruments will be through expert judgment and with values of p = 0.0023 for the first variable and p = 0.0031 for the second variable. Likewise, the reliability of KR-20 = 0.86 for the first variable and α = 0.89 for the second variable. The processing and analysis of the data will be carried out with the Microsoft Excel version 2019 and SPSS Statistics version 25.0 programs. The subsequent analyzes and explanations will be carried out in tabular and/or graphical form, and the results will be analyzed and interpreted for discussion on a theoretical basis. The Spearman (Rho) correlation test will also be used to verify the hypothesis

Objetivo general: Determinar cuál es la relación entre el nivel de conocimiento y el autocuidado en pacientes con diálisis peritoneal domiciliaria en Ayacucho, 2023. Materiales y Métodos: El estudio se apoyará en una investigación aplicada, hipotética deductiva, no experimental transversal y correlacional- La población estará conformada por 80 pacientes con Diálisis Peritoneal Domiciliaria en Ayacucho. La validación de los instrumentos será por medio de juicio de expertos y con valores de p = 0.0023 para la primera variable y de p = 0.0031 para la segunda variable. Asimismo, la confiabilidad de KR 20 = 0.86 para la primera variable y α = 0.89 para la segunda variable. El procesamiento y el análisis de los datos se realizarán con los programas Microsoft Excel versión 2019 y SPSS Statistics versión 25.0. Los análisis y explicaciones subsiguientes se llevarán a cabo en forma tabular y/o gráfica, y los resultados se analizarán e interpretarán para su discusión sobre una base teórica. También se utilizará la prueba de correlación de Spearman (Rho) para comprobar la hipótesis.
