Abstract
We explored the relationship between sedentary behavior and the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients on chronic hemodialysis. A total of 60 outpatients, aged 71.1±12.0 years, were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Sedentary behavior was measured using a tri-accelerometer and HRQOL was evaluated by the Euro-QOL questionnaire (EQ-5D). The relationship between the patients’ sedentary behavior and HRQOL was evaluated by simple and multiple correlation analyses. The relative sedentary behavior (%) for total days was 73.7±12.9% and the EQ-5D scores were 0.688±0.233. Relative sedentary behavior (%) was negatively correlated with EQ-5D scores for total days, hemodialysis days and non-hemodialysis days. The relative light-intensity physical activity (LPA) (%) and relative moderately vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA) (%) were correlated with EQ-5D scores. Multiple regression showed that the relative sedentary behavior (%) had a clinical impact on EQ-5D scores after adjusting for confounding factors for total, hemodialysis and non-hemodialysis days. Sedentary behavior is closely linked to HRQOL, and reducing sedentary behavior may be beneficial to improve the HRQOL of patients on chronic hemodialysis.
