Aims:Hemodialysis patients experience in during the hemodialysis levels of nausea it’s affected on adequacy dialysis. This study performed with the aim assessing the effect of muscle relaxation on nausea and dialysis adequacy in hemodialysis patients.Methods:This two grouped experimental controlled trial was conducted on 90 hemodialysis patients as the control case group from Gonabad and zahedan hospitals in 2015. For whom Benson muscle relaxation performed in their home after the initial training by the researcher, for 15-20 minutes, twice a day during one month. Nausea and dialysis adequacy evaluated before and after the intervention in both groups. The collected data were analyzed using independent t-test, chi-square and Mann-Whitney U tests through SPSS software version 21. The p-value was considered significant at 0.05 levels.Results: The mean scores of nausea and adequacy dialysis in case group, before the intervention, were 0.22±1.04 and 1.35±0.39 which nausea received to 0.02±0.15 and adequacy dialysis1.50±0.43 after the intervention. Wilcoxon test showed This difference was not significant in nausea (p=0.65), but result t paired showed it was significant in adequacy dialysis (p=0.003).Conclusion: Muscle Benson relaxation can be considered as a cost effective, simple and secure way to increase adequacy dialysis in the hemodialysis patients.
