%X objective: to evaluate the influence of sociological factors on the perceived health related quality of life among hemodialysis patients in our unit. methodology: prospective, descriptive and cross-sectional study in hemodialysis patients who had been at least 3 months on chronic treatment. euroqol-5d was used as a measuring instrument. as sociological dependent variables were studied: age, sex, marital status, cohabitation, educational level and monthly income. results: forty-seven patients were studied: 67% men, mean age 62 ¡À 15 years. sixty-three percent suffered some type of moderated pain / discomfort, and 49% were anxious / depressed to varying degrees. neither sex nor educational level correlated with any parameter of the euroqol-5d. married people had worse scores in terms of vas (p = 0.012), anxiety / depression (p = 0.002) and perceived health status in the past year (p = 0.016). those who lived alone had better scores on the vas (p = 0.062) and less pain / discomfort (p = 0.075). income level was inversely correlated with personal hygiene problems (p = 0.016). patients over 65 years had poorer perception of health status that patients under 65 years (p = 0.006). conclusions: nearly 70% of patients have pain / discomfort, and nearly half are anxious or depressed. sociological variables that influence the quality of life related to health in hemodialysis patients are age, cohabitation, marital status and income level.
