ASSESSMENT OF QUALITY OF LIFE IN 50 PATIENTS WHILE UNDER HEMODIALYSIS AND FOLLOWING KIDNEY TRANSPLANT
Authors
Abstract:
The quality of life of 50 end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on hemodialysis was evaluated before and after kidney transplantation (KTx). Mean duration of the patients' hemodialysis was 3 years and mean postoperative period was 2.4 years when tested. Common problems of such patients such as depression, sleep disorders, energy pattern disruption, sex-life difficulties, and appetite disorders were assessed using a five point scale (very good, good, medium, difficult and disabled). Following renal transplant, more than 80% of patients showed an improvement in several aspects in this regard.
