Aim: Physical inactivity is associated with the increased incidence of hospitalizations, increased risk of mortality due to heart diseases in hemodialysis patients. The aim of study was to evaluate the functional and physical activity levels of chronic renal failure patients receiving hemodialysis treatment.Material and Methods: 96 of whom were hemodialysis patients (63,22 12,84 years) and 107 (51,07 8,33 years) healthy people, participated to the study. The functional activity level was assessed with the Human Activity Profile. The level of physical activity was determined with the Turkish version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form.Results: When the hemodialysis patients and the control group were compared in terms of the functional activity and physical activity level after controlled the age variable, Maximum Activity Score (MAS) and the Adjusted Activity Score (AAS) values and Turkish version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) levels of the hemodialysis group were significantly lower (p0.05). When the activity levels of the hemodialysis group were compared by gender, the Adjusted Activity Score values of females were significantly lower (p0.05), and the Turkish version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form daily activity levels and Maximum Activity Score values were similar (p 0.05).Conclusion: The functional and physical activity levels of chronic renal patients receiving hemodialysis treatment were significantly lower. We believe that the results of our study give a small idea of the possible functional limitations and physical inactivity of the dialysis patients in our country.
