Abstract :Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the status of self-transcendence and quality of life in patients receiving hemodialysis therapy. Materials and Methods: It is a descriptive and cross-sectional study. The universe of the study has consisted of all patients (n = 380) who received hemodialysis treatment in dialysis centers located in the city center of Zonguldak. Personal Information Form, Reed\'s self-transcendence scale, and European Health Impact Scale were used in data collection. Results: There was a highly positive relationship between the self-transcendence scale and the European Health Impact Scale (p, 0.000, r = 0.605). Also, it was found in this study that age and level of income of hemodialysis patients affected the quality of life and the self-transcendence. Conclusion: As a result, it was determined that the patients aged 60-74 years and those with low-income levels in hemodialysis patients had a poor self-transcendence status, while patients aged 75 and over, with low income and unemployed had poor quality of life.
