dc.description.abstractPurpose: This research was conducted to identify the effect of the symptom level on the illness perception in individuals undergoing hemodialysis. Material and Methods: The study was performed with 240 participants who had the hemodialysis procedure in dialysis units of hospitals and one private dialysis center in a province and satisfied the criteria to be included in the research. Results: In the study, it was found that nearly all patients experienced symptoms such as itching, numbness/tingling in the feet, feeling tired and dry skin. In the sample group that had a negative illness perception, it was found that the symptoms experienced alongside the hemodialysis procedure affected the illness perception, and there was a moderately positive relationship between these two variables. Conclusions: In this context, it was recommended that the frequency and the severity of symptoms of patients undergoing hemodialysis be regularly followed and these patients’ illness perception levels be evaluated. Key words: Illness perception, hemodialysis, symptom
