Abstract

SUMMARY. The aim – to examine the impact of diabetic nephropathy (DN) on the quality of life (QOL) of patients treated with programmed hemodialysis (HD) and to establish relationships between calcification of the heart valves and QOL in cohorts of HD patients with diabetes mellitus (DM).

Material and Methods. The study included 136 patients with chronic kidney disease of the VD stage who received HD (age of patients – 53.9±1.0 years; men – 78; duration of HD – 47.6±4.2 months). Clinical, demographic and instrumental data were evaluated. Calcification of the heart valves was verified by ultrasound examination. A QOL assessment questionnaire (KDQOL-SF ™ 1.3) was used to evaluate the quality of life (QOL).

Results. All HD patients were divided into two groups: group 1 – patients withuot DN (n = 88); group 2 – patients with DN (n = 48). It was found that patients with diabetes were more often diagnosed with coronary heart disease (1.5 times), heart failure (1.54 times), arrhythmias (1.75 times). The prevalence of calcification of the heart valves was higher (66.6 vs. 38.6 %, p = 0.002) in patients with DN compering with patients without diabetes. Analysis of QOL questionnaires (KDQOL-SF ™ 1.3) showed significantly lower QOL rates in patients with diabetes compared with patients without diabetes on scales such as disease symptoms, consequences of kidney disease, burden of kidney disease, work, sleep, general well-being, physical functioning, role functioning due to physical condition, body pain, general health, emotional well-being, role functioning emotional state, social function, energy / fatigue, sf-12 physical component, sf-12 emotional component. Correlations were found between the presence of calcification of the heart valves and QOL in both groups of patients with DN (Rs = -0.31-0.67) and without DN (Rs = -0.23-0.67), which received HD, and a significant associative relationship between the frequency of combined calcification of the heart valves and QOL indicators, in particular general well-being, emotional well-being, sleep, social support, were found only in people without diabetes.

Conclusion. DN reduces QOL of patients treated with HD. Calcification of the heart valves in patients with diabetes mellitus doesn`t have a huge impact on QOL, but significantly worsens its manifestations.
