Abstract Introduction: Stress is the response of body to any change. The end stage of renal disease and the process of haemodialysis treatment are long-term stressors that alter patients’ well-being and everyday lifestyle. The aim of this study was to find out the prevalence of moderate stress levels among patients undergoing hemodialysis in a tertiary care centre. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among patients undergoing hemodialysis from 1 October 2021 to 30 September 2022. Ethical clearance from the Institutional Review Committee. Patients undergoing maintenance haemodialysis for at least 3 months were included in the study. Convenience sampling method was used. The point estimate was calculated at a 95% Confidence Interval. Results: Among 118 patients, 82 (69.49%) (61.18-77.80, 95% Confidence Interval) had moderate stress levels, out of which 51 (62.20%) were male and 31 (37.80%) were female. Conclusions: The prevalence of moderate stess level was found to be higher than other studies done in similar settings.
