摘      要：OBJECTIVE: To explore the influence of acupoint exercise on anxiety, depression and sleep quality in hemodialysis patients, aiming to provide scientific basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment. METHODS: A total of 78 hemodialysis patients who were treated in our hospital from May 2015 to May 2018 were selected as subjects. All patients were divided into two groups according to the random number table method. Among them, 40 patients in the observation group were given acupoint operation intervention, and 38 patients in the control group were given routine care. The anxiety level(HAMA), depression level(HAMD), hopeful sleep quality(PSQI) level, and quality of life(SF-36) levels were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: The HAMA and HAMD scores of the two groups were not significantly different before intervention. However, the scores of HAMA and HAMD in the observation group were lower than those in the control group. The scores of the PSQI scale were higher than those in the control group, indicating that the sleeping quality of the observation group was better. And the SF-36 score was higher in the observation group than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant. CONCLUSION: Acupoint exercise plays an important role in improving anxiety and depression and quality of sleep in hemodialysis patients. It can effectively improve the quality of life of hemodialysis patients, and can be applied clinically to improve its therapeutic effect.
