ABSTRACT Post-hemodialysis, patients frequently experience symptoms that disrupt their comfort during daily activities, ranging from simple to strenuous tasks. Many hemodialysis patients do not feel well after dialysis sessions and require time to recover before resuming their usual activities at home or work. This study aims to determine the influence of fluid compliance, dietary compliance, and hemodialysis dose compliance on post-dialysis recovery time. A crosectional design with consecutive sampling was employed, involving 76 respondents. Data were collected by distributing questionnaires to patients undergoing hemodialysis during each Data analysis was conducted using the Mann-Whitney test with a 95% confidence Post-dialysis recovery time ranged from a minimum of 15 minutes to a maximum of 1,800 minutes, with the majority of patients recovering within 240 minutes. There was a significant difference between post-dialysis recovery time and fluid restriction adherence . value = 0. 000, p-value < 0. , with respondents who adhered to fluid restrictions having a predominantly 45-minute recovery time. Similarly, a significant difference was observed between post-dialysis recovery time and dietary compliance . -value = 0. 000, p-value < 0. with respondents who adhered to their diet also having a 45-minute recovery time. Additionally, a significant difference was found between post-dialysis recovery time and hemodialysis dose compliance . -value = 0. 007, p-value < 0. , with the majority of respondents adhering to the hemodialysis dose exhibiting a 120-minute recovery time. Postdialysis recovery time is influenced by compliance to fluid restrictions, dietary management, and hemodialysis dosing in hemodialysis patients. Maintaining compliance to fluid restrictions, diet, and hemodialysis dosing can shorten post-dialysis recovery time. Keywords: Dietary Compliance. Fluid Restriction Compliance.

INTRODUCTION Post-hemodialysis, recovery, 27. 3% require 60-120 minutes, experience symptoms such as numbness, 5% require more than 240 minutes fatigue, weakness, tiredness, and lethargy. for recovery (Rayner et al. , 2. These complaints disrupt patients' comfort Numerous factors influence recovery time, during daily activities, ranging from simple including patient demographics, comorbid Many hemodialysis (HD) patients do not feel well after dialysis sessions and require time to recover before resuming their usual activities at home or work. The need for post-dialysis recovery time is more common in patients undergoing HD three times a week compared to those undergoing HD daily (Bossola et al. According to Lopes et al. , 49. 2% of HD patients require less than 60 minutes for Post-dialysis recovery time refers to the duration patients need to regain the ability to perform their normal daily activities following a hemodialysis (HD) session (Lindsay et al. , 2. Studies have shown that dialysis recovery is influenced by several unmodifiable factors, including JKEP (Jurnal Keperawata.

These findings are consistent with other studies, which reported an lack of association between post-HD complicates the prediction of recovery time after HD based on demographic profiles and standard clinical parameters (Awuah et , 2. average recovery time of 246 A 451 minutes (Awuah et al. , 2.

Dietary compliance affects body biochemistry and has additional side effects on the body. These functional changes impact quality of life and correlate with post-dialysis recovery time (Lindsay et al.

The limitations identified in this study include the presence of several secondary data required for the research that were not well-documented in the medical records of RSU dr. Zainoel Abidin Aceh, such as comorbidity data, early complications during HD, and adherence to HD dosing. Consequently, some respondents were excluded from the analysis. Another limitation pertains to the questions related JKEP (Jurnal Keperawata.

CONCLUSION Post-dialysis recovery time is influenced by compliance to fluid restriction, compliance to dietary regulations, and the hemodialysis (HD) dosing regimen administered to EndStage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients. It is comfort and allowing patients to resume activities after the HD session is completed.
