Summary
This study aims to evaluate the effects of progressive muscle relaxation exercises on depression and fatigue levels in patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment. Progressive muscle relaxation is applied as an individualized non-pharmacological intervention, and its potential contribution to psychological well-being is investigated. The study seeks to determine whether regular relaxation exercises can reduce depressive symptoms, alleviate fatigue, and improve overall emotional well-being in hemodialysis patients. Findings from this research are expected to provide evidence for the use of relaxation-based interventions as supportive care methods in the management of psychological symptoms associated with chronic kidney disease and hemodialysis.
