Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Studies of HRQoL after kidney transplant have yielded conflicting results. We sought to assess the impact of kidney transplant on HRQoL. METHODS:We performed a retrospective study using the PedsQL3.0ESRD module during dialysis and at 3 and 12 months following kidney transplant in 56 recipients. For the entire cohort, we described HRQoL scores at each time point and used ANOVA models to test for associations between demographic and transplant-related factors and post-transplant scores. We used linear mixed models to investigate interactions between transplant and demographic and transplant-related factors and to estimate differences between mean pre- and post-transplant scores. Longitudinal changes in HRQoL were assessed by t test. RESULTS:We found increases in all mean total scores, including subscales, at each assessed time period from dialysis to 3 months post-transplant to 12 months post-transplant. Post-transplant total scores did not differ by gender, race, proximity to hospital, allograft source, or dialysis modality, but did differ by recipient age. Among participants with both pre- and post-transplant observations, total scores increased for both recipients and parent-proxies. CONCLUSIONS:This study affirms the association between kidney transplant and improvement in HRQoL in the first year following transplant. Future research should further explore outcomes over the longer-term and factors contributing to HRQoL among this population.
