Descriptive study evaluates home care management knowledge in renal failure patients, highlighting gaps.
Renal failure is a chronic health condition requiring long-term management and continuous care. Effective home-care management plays a vital role in reducing complications, improving quality of life, and preventing hospital re-admissions.[1] This descriptive study was conducted at Pushpanjali Hospital, Agra, with the objective of assessing the level of knowledge among renal failure patients regarding home-care management.[2] A structured questionnaire was used to collect data. Results revealed that while a small proportion of patients had adequate knowledge, a majority demonstrated moderate to poor awareness regarding dietary management, fluid restriction, medication adherence, and infection prevention.[3] The study highlights the importance of continuous patient education and nursing intervention to improve knowledge and promote effective self-care practices.
