OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to evaluate the body image perception, pain, fatigue and anxiety levels of individuals with kidney transplantation and undergoing hemodialysis and waiting for kidney transplantation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 240 individuals who applied to the nephrology outpatient clinic and dialysis unit between 29 August 2021 and 20 May 2022. Data in the study were collected using Patient Information Form, LANSS Pain Scale, Visual Similarity Scale for Fatigue, Beck Anxiety Scale and Body Image Scale. RESULTS: The Body Image Scale total score average of individuals undergoing hemodialysis is 104.8 ± 15.4, the LANSS Pain Scale total score average is 18.7 ± 5.4, the Visual Similarity Scale total score average for Fatigue is 29.5 ± 1.2, and the Beck Anxiety Scale total score average is 104.8 ± 15.4. The total score average is 47.6 ± 6.8. The LANSS Pain Scale total mean score of individuals with kidney transplantation is 8.2 ± 2.0, the Body Image Scale total score mean is 75.6 ± 3.5, the Visual Similarity Scale total score mean for Fatigue is 24.3 ± 1, and the Beck Anxiety Scale total score mean is 24.3 ± 1. The mean total score of the scale was found to be 25.6 ± 4.1. CONCLUSION: It has been determined that hemodialysis patients waiting for a kidney transplant are not satisfied with their body image, experience more pain, and have higher levels of fatigue and anxiety than patients who have had a kidney transplant.
