A Mixed Methods Study of Risk Factors for Frailty in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients.
Objectives: This study uses a convergent mixed methods approach to investigate the frailty phenotypes and risk factors in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients.
Design: A cross-sectional mixed methods research study was employed.
Methods: This study follows the MMR-RHS reporting guidelines. From November 2023 to August 2024, 213 patients were recruited from the PD centre of a tertiary hospital in Chongqing, China. Quantitative data were collected using a general information questionnaire and standardised scales, including Fried Frailty Phenotype (FFP), Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), Mini Nutritional Assessment-Short Form (MNA-SF), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Concurrently, 19 PD patients in pre-frail or frail states participated in semi-structured interviews. The quantitative and qualitative findings were then integrated for analysis.
Results: Amongst the 213 PD patients, 46.5% were non-frail, 41.3% were pre-frail and 12.2% were frail. Integrated analysis indicated that fatigue and low muscle strength were the primary frailty phenotypes amongst the patients. Age, sedentary behaviour, comorbidities, nutritional status, cognitive function, polypharmacy, psychological state and social connections were identified as risk factors for frailty in this patient population.
Conclusion: Many factors influence the frailty of PD patients. Future research should further explore the complex interactions amongst these factors and effective modulation strategies to mitigate the frailty progression. Incorporating the patients' perspectives in designing comprehensive intervention programmes will help identify key challenges and focal points for intervention.
Impact: This study identifies risk factors for frailty in PD patients, offering healthcare professionals a basis for designing targeted interventions. These factors encompass multiple dimensions, indicating the need for multidisciplinary collaboration in managing frailty.
Patient contribution: The PD patients in this study provided valuable quantitative data and shared their frailty experiences, enhancing the research conclusions' practical value.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Clinical Nursing (JCN) is an international, peer reviewed, scientific journal that seeks to promote the development and exchange of knowledge that is directly relevant to all spheres of nursing practice. The primary aim is to promote a high standard of clinically related scholarship which advances and supports the practice and discipline of nursing. The Journal also aims to promote the international exchange of ideas and experience that draws from the different cultures in which practice takes place. Further, JCN seeks to enrich insight into clinical need and the implications for nursing intervention and models of service delivery. Emphasis is placed on promoting critical debate on the art and science of nursing practice.
JCN is essential reading for anyone involved in nursing practice, whether clinicians, researchers, educators, managers, policy makers, or students. The development of clinical practice and the changing patterns of inter-professional working are also central to JCN''s scope of interest. Contributions are welcomed from other health professionals on issues that have a direct impact on nursing practice.
We publish high quality papers from across the methodological spectrum that make an important and novel contribution to the field of clinical nursing (regardless of where care is provided), and which demonstrate clinical application and international relevance.
