| 520 | |a The aim of the present cross-sectional study is to investigate the relationship between illness representations, coping and quality of life among patients undergoing haemodialysis in Malaysian NGO-based haemodialysis centres. The theoretical framework of the study was Leventhal's Common Sense Model of Self-regulation of Health and Illness (1984). The Illness representations, coping and quality of life were assessed by the Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire (IPQ-R), Brief COPE and Short Form 12-Item Health Survey Questionnaire v2 (SF-12v2) respectively. One hundred and four patients undergoing haemodialysis (79 males and 25 females) participated in the study based on purposive and convenience sampling. The analyses supported Hypothesis One but failed to support Hypothesis Two. The results indicate that perceived consequences (r = -0.365, p < 0.01), illness coherence (r = 0.203, p < 0.01) and emotional representation (r = -0.317, p < 0.01) were found to have significant relationship with quality of life. However, adaptive coping did not mediate perceived consequences and physical component summary (PCS) of quality of life in the present sample. The results suggest the importance of patients' representations of illness in their mental and physical health. Psychological assessment is proposed to be part of the patients' treatment protocol. Any development programmes in educating patients or care takers such as families, nurses, physicians and others would need to take into account patients' own representations of the end-stage renal disease (ESRD). | ||
