Description

Introduction: Chronic renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis
commonly experience excess fluid volume in the body. It is necessary to
provide media which can be independently employed by the patients to
control body fluids and prevent fluid overload. The purpose of the study is
to develop an android-based application "Sabahat Dialisis", as well as
conducting validity test, reliability test, and application usage tests on
users.
Methods: This research utilized a Research and Development (R&D) design
consisting of two stages. In Stage 1, an Android-based application was
developed and its validity and reliability were assessed by five experts in
dialysis. Stage 2 involved conducting trials of the application with 30
chronic renal failure patients in the Dialysis Unit to evaluate its usability.
Results: The application component proved to be valid (I-CVI=1) and
reliable (Cronbach’s alpha=0.768). The results of the application use trial
on 30 hemodialysis patients indicated that 83.3% considered the
application easy to understand, the menu/features were easy to use and
operate (83.4%: 86.7%), 76.7% of users were satisfied with the
application, the application was useful, in accordance with the needs of
hemodialysis patients, and easy to learn (90%), 86.7% were easy to
operate, and 76.7% recommended the application for use in hemodialysis
patients.
Conclusion: Sahabat Dialisis application is valid, reliable, and usable for
chronic renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis to control fluid in
the body and avoid fluid overload.
