Abstract: Objective: This study aimed to describe Maintenance Hemodialysis (MHD) patients' self-management ability, and to explore the effect of continued nursing on self-management ability in aged MHD patients. Methods: In this study, 31 clients were selected from the hemodialysis center of a hospital in Changchun. The patients were surveyed using demographic questionnaire and Self-management Behavior Scale for Hemodialysis Patients before and after received continued nursing. Results: The patients' self-management ability was significantly improved after receiving continued nursing (P<0.05). Conclusions: Self-management ability of aged MHD patients was low. Continued nursing could improve the self-management behavior of MHD patients and their quality of life.
