Abstrak

Progressive kidney function decline to a GFR < 15 mL/min/1.73 m² is defined as
stage 5 chronic kidney disease (end stage) or end-stage renal failure. In this condition,
patients require renal replacement therapy, such as hemodialysis. Effective dialysis
indicates a longer life expectancy and lower mortality rates. The effectiveness of the
hemodialysis process or hemodialysis adequacy is measured by the Kt/V value, which
reflects the urea clearance during each hemodialysis session. Blood sugar levels before
hemodialysis are one of the predictors of hemodialysis adequacy. This study used an
analytic observational method on 34 samples that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria to
find correlation between blood glucose and hemodialysis adequacy in routine hemodialysis
patients at West Nusa Tenggara General Hospital. Data collection was carried out at the HD
Unit 2 of the Provincial General Hospital of West Nusa Tenggara. In this study, the average
age of the respondents was 50 years, consisting of 64.7% male and 35.3% female. The results
of the correlation analysis using the Pearson test showed no significant relationship between
blood glucose levels and hemodialysis adequacy, with p=0,478 and r=-0,126. However, the
Fisher exact test revealed a statistically significant relationship between gender and
hemodialysis adequacy, with p<0,001. In conclusion, blood glucose levels were not
associated with hemodialysis adequacy, while gender showed a statistically significant
association with hemodialysis adequacy.
