Abstract

Background: Chronic kidney disease is prevalent and associated with many morbidity and mortality at all stages. Lack of knowledge toward CKD management and treatment would affect disease progression. Objectives: The study aimed to explore the knowledge and attitude toward chronic kidney disease among patients undergoing pre-dialysis. Methods: A cross-sectional design was conducted at three referral hospitals in West Java from June to December 2016. The inclusion criteria were patients diagnosed with CKD undergoing pre-dialysis phase II and IV, conscious, without severe complication, and able to speak without cognitive and mentally disordered. Consecutive sampling was applied to select participants. A total of 70 patients with CKD pre-dialysis were recruited. Results: The majority of them were male (61.4). The mean age was 62.65 (SD=12.65), the highest educated were diploma III/university (28.6%). The average of knowledge of CKD, with the mean score, was 10.55 (SD=3.45). The majority of participants had a correct answer related to etiology (88.6%) and symptoms (67.1%). On average, patients undergoing pre-dialysis reported favorable score of attitude (Mean=46.80, SD=3.49). The supportive attitude was higher in the hope of healing/recovery and diet and drinking pattern. Conclusions: Study findings indicated the lack of knowledge of CKD but showed favorable attitude on the hope for healing/recovery and diet and drinking pattern. Intervention to improve their knowledge of CKD is essential. Keywords: chronic kidney disease, knowledge, attitude, pre-dialysis
