Abstract

Objective: verify the association between socioeconomic and clinical characteristics and the factors associated with a diagnosis of fluid volume deficit risk in patients who are on hemodialysis. Materials and methods: This is a cross-sectional study done at the dialysis unit of a university hospital in northeastern Brazil. Featuring 50 patients, it was conducted through interviews and physical examinations. The Mann-Whitney U-test was used to analyze the data. Results: A number of significant associations were verified; namely, knowledge deficit and hemodialysis time (p = 0.037); weight extremes and family income (p = 0.040); weight extremes and ultrafiltration volume (p= 0.010), and fluid loss through abnormal pathways and ultrafiltration volume (p = 0.000). Conclusions: Associations were identified between the factors associated with a nursing diagnosis of fluid volume deficit risk and the socioeconomic and clinical characteristics of patients who are undergoing hemodialysis. The factors associated with that diagnosis can be influenced by socioeconomic characteristics and clinical aspects.
