Clinical and sociodemographic characteristics of patients with kidney dysfunction or kidney transplant rejection
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: The identification of clinical and sociodemographic characteristics of patients with kidney dysfunction or kidney transplant rejection can help the design and implementation of nursing interventions which contribute to the patient’s survival.
Objective: To describe the clinical and sociodemographic characteristics of patients suffering from kidney dysfunction or kidney transplant rejection in a 3rd level hospital in the city of Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico.
Methods: This is a retrospective and descriptive study using sampling by convenience. 118 clinical records of adult patients with a diagnosis of kidney dysfunction or kidney transplant rejection during the period 2016-2018 were identified. Clinical and sociodemographic data from both groups of patients were compared. A value of p< 0.05 was accepted as statistically significant.
Results: 20.3% of the total patients were diagnosed with kidney dysfunction and 79.7% with kidney transplant rejection. The mean patient age was 29.9 ± 10.2 years old with a range of 20 to 84. The majority of patients were male with a background of having received a kidney transplant from a deceased donor. No main differences in clinical and sociodemographic characteristics were found between the patients with kidney dysfunction and the patients with kidney transplant rejection.
Conclusions: Kidney dysfunction and kidney transplant rejection continue being frequent health problems, and a better knowledge of the clinical and sociodemographic characteristics of these patients, even if no main differences between the two groups are found, will contribute to the better design and implementation of the related nursing interventions.
