Abstract	Introduction: Hemodialysis is a lifesaving treatment for people with kidney failure which help removes waste products and extra fluids from the blood and regulates blood pressure when the kidneys are not able to. Nearly 4 million people in the world are living on kidney replacement therapy and hemodialysis HD remains the commonest form of KRT, accounting for approximately 69 % of all KRT and 89% of all dialysis. Anxiety is the common symptom among patient undergoing hemodialysis. It has been postulated that relaxation technique can be used to decrease muscle tension to reduce the level of anxiety among patient undergoing hemodialysis. Aim: The aim of the study was evaluate the effects of progressive muscle relaxation technique on anxiety among patient undergoing hemodialysis. Materials & Methods: A pre-experimental research design (one group pretest posttest) was adopted for the study.80 patients were selected by using a non -probability convenient sampling technique. Result: The analysis revealed that among 80 patients with demographic data majority of the subjects 58 (72.50%) belong to the age group of >40, Most of the subjects were male 46 (57.50%), maximum subjects 31(38.75%) were home maker, no subjects were exposed for relaxation technique. majority of subjects started hemodialysis 1-5 years ago 42 (52.5%), majority of subjects were undergoing hemodialysis thrice a week 51 (63.25%), there were significant association between anxiety scores, The pretest mean and standard deviation was 19.58 ±2.40 and posttest mean and standard deviation was 14.48± 3.11 and calculated t value(11.3) was highly significant at p <0.001 level of significance and there was significant association between anxiety scores and religion of patients undergoing hemodialysis at 0.05 level of significance Conclusion: The result highlighted that progressive muscle relaxation technique to be effective method to reduce the anxiety level among patients undergoing hemodialysis.
