Full description

The following outcomes will also be compared between Patients with Pre-emptive Transplantation and Patients with Dialysis before Transplantation : a) changes in quality of life, subjective well-being, perceived anxiety and depressive disorders as well as perceived stress during follow-up taking into account psychological adjustment (response shift) ; b) The coping strategies (process of managing stressful circumstances) and post-traumatic growth (positive psychological change experienced as a result of the struggle with highly challenging life circumstances) ; c) The 2-year post transplantation graft survival and patient outcomes: evolution of the Graft Filtration Rate, the proteinuria level ; d) The Kidney Transplant Failure Score (KTFS, patent N°0959043) at one year post transplantation ; e) The post-transplantation time to return to work and patients compliance to treatment.
