| Objective: This study was carried out with the purpose of assessment quality of life of patients who have undergone kidney transplants and factors affecting it. Methodology: The study included 50 cases at Nephrology Outpatient Clinic at Sohag University Hospital the research was conducted at the duration from setmper 2017 to march 2018, In this study quality of life for patients after renal transplantation was assessed by two tools: 1-Quality of life questionnaire 2-Lab investigations Results: The average scores for quality of life after renal transplantation were good ,many facors affect quality of life after renal transplantation ,in this study we discussed gender,residence,marital state,work,age duration of dialysis,duration after renal transplantation and level of serum creatinine,Study findings clarified that gender,marital state,work state and duration of dialysis had no statistically significant distinction between them and total QOL score while residence,age,duration of transplantation and level of serum creatinine after renal transplantation had statistically significant distinction between them and total QOL score. Conclusion: t was concluded that: the average scores for quality of life after renal transplantation were good, residence,age,duration of transplantation and level of serum creatinine after renal transplantation had impact on quality of life after renal transplantation but gender,marital state,work state and duration of dialysis had no impact on quality of life after renal transplantation. | ||||
