Abstract

The aim of the work: to determine the indicators of the quality of life in recipients after kidney transplantation from a family and cada­veric donor, to assess the dynamics after 1, 2 and 3 months. Compare the obtained results.

Materials and Methods. In order to assess the quality of life, the 36-Item Short-Form Health Status (SF-36) questionnaire, convenient and understandable for the patient, was used. The obtained data were entered into Microsoft™ Excel® 2016, sorted, processed. The statistical base consisted of n=41 patients: n=19 in the family transplantation group, where 8 men, 11 women (group 1), and n=22 in the cadaveric transplantation group, where 11 men, 11 women (group 2). Groups were compared for homogeneity on the risk of mortality and postope­rative complications (P-POSSUM). The average indicator of the complexity of the operation in group 1 was 13.4 units, while in group 2 it was 14.8 units on the P-POSSUM scale. The average age of recipients in group 1 was 39.11, in group 2 – 39.41.

Results and discussion. The analysis of the results showed that the quality of life in patients after cadaveric transplantation (in group 2) was objectively lower than the corresponding indicator in group 1 before surgery, in the first 2 months, and leveled off and did not differ statistically after 3 months.

Current experience in performing kidney transplants, high-quality and appropriate maintenance of the waiting list, as well as modern pharmacotherapy and rehabilitation make it possible to guarantee patients after cadaveric kidney transplantation a quality of life comparable to family kidney transplantation 3 months after transplantation.
