Abstract

Adherence to hemodialysis therapy is critical to the quality of life and survival of hemodialysis patients. The compliance of patients undergoing hemodialysis can be influenced by a number of factors. Among the factors that can influence adherence to hemodialysis, social support is an intriguing one to examine further, as existing studies have demonstrated a lack of statistically significant correlation between perceived social support and hemodialysis. Further investigation is required in order to gain insight into the relationship between social support and patient adherence to hemodialysis therapy, This study utilized a quantitative, correlational, and cross-sectional research design involving 80 participants who had received hemodialysis for at least three months but no more than 12 months. Majority of respondents (70 individuals, representing 87.5% of the total sample) report having good social support, majority of respondents were classified as compliant in undergoing hemodialysis therapy, namely 48 respondents (60.0%). A statistically significant relationship between social support and patient compliance in undergoing hemodialysis therapy with an r value of .393. This indicates a low level of relationship with a positive direction. The medical team is expected to educate patients and their families about the importance of social support. Future research will likely explore additional factors contributing to patient compliance not only in hemodialysis but also in other therapies, such as dietary and fluid intake
