Purpose:

1) To study the level of fatigue, level of mobility & fall risk in Individuals with chronic kidney disease. 2) to assess the relationship of fatigue with mobility and fall risk in chronic kidney disease individuals.

Relevance:

Information regarding the relationship of fatigue with mobility & fall risk can help provide targeted intervention in the chronic kidney disease population to improve the overall QoL of the Individuals which in turn can help to improve relevant patient-reported outcomes

Participants:

84 OPD & IPD participants diagnosed with chronic kidney disease of more than 40 years with medication or on haemodialysis were included in the study.

Methods:

This analytical cross-sectional study includes 84 chronic kidney disease individuals using G* Power 3.1.9.7 of age 40-79 by convenient sampling from Muljibhai Patel Urological Hospital Nadiad in the duration of 10 October 2023 to 10 November 2023.

Analysis:

Descriptive analysis was used to depict the demographic characteristics of participants. Correlation analysis was done by Pearson’s correlation test.

Results:

The correlation of fatigue with mobility and fall risk in CKD shows a statistically significant positive association between fatigue and both impaired mobility and increased fall risk in kidney patients.

Conclusion:

The research analysis suggests a significant correlation between fatigue and mobility in chronic kidney disease patients. Additionally, there appears to be a notable association between fatigue and an increased risk of falls in individuals with CKD.

Implications:

The results can be applied for structured treatment plan.
