Rehabilitation profile of kidney transplant patients. 1978

M S Mabee, and N L Tilney, and G C Vineyard, and R E Wilson

The rehabilitation of 132 patients with functioning grafts six months to ten years post transplantation was examined by review of self-report questionnaires. The patients were divided into three groups according to when they underwent transplantation. Results showed 62 per cent of patients in group A (transplant received between July 1, 1973 and December 31, 1973), 69 per cent in group B (transplant received between January 1, 1971 and June 30, 1973), and 90 per cent in group C (transplant received between January 1, 1964 and December 31, 1970) were productively active in July 1974. Nearly all attained productively active rehabilitation scores by twelve months, but one-third reported they were functioning at a lower level than before their illness, and a significant number of patients with physically strenuous jobs before illness acquired sedentary jobs post transplantation.
