Publisher: | Turk Nefroloji Diyaliz ve Transplantasyon Hemsireleri Dernegi | Abstract: | Objective: This study aimed to examine the relationship between sleep quality and quality of life in patients who had a kidney transplant. Materials and Methods: The research has a cross-sectional and descriptive design. The sample of the study consisted of 77 patients who had a kidney transplant at a university hospital organ transplantation centre between August 2020 and August 2021 and were followed up in the outpatient clinic. An individual identification form, the Quality-of-Life Short Form, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index were used to collect research data. Descriptive statistics (percentage and number), Pearson’s correlation test, Student’s t-test for independent variables, ANOVA, and linear regression analysis were used in the research analysis. Results: In the study, the mean age of the patients was 47.19±11.29 (min: 24, max: 73), and the mean transplantation time was 94.92±75.23 months. The mean PSQI and SF-36 scores of kidney transplant patients were 4.91±3.09 and 65.49±18.18, respectively. There was a statistically significant correlation between sleep quality and quality of life in kidney transplant patients (r=-0.511, p=0.0001). Conclusions: In the study, the quality of life increased as the sleep quality of the patients increased. © 2023, Turk Nefroloji Diyaliz ve Transplantasyon Hemsireleri Dernegi.
