Brief summary
The investigators aimed to investigate the quality of life in patients with end-stage renal disease who underwent open or robot-assisted renal transplantation. Also, the investigators sought to determine the parameters which can affect the quality of life in these patients
Detailed description
Patients who underwent open or robot-assisted renal transplantation at Bakirkoy Sadi Konuk Training and Research Hospital between June 2016 and December 2018 constituted the target population of this study. After application of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the patient group was divided into two groups as per the surgical technique (i.e., open vs. robot-assisted). Demographic data, preoperative and postoperative data of all patients were collected prospectively. The quality of life of the patients was assessed preoperatively and on the postoperative 30th day

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of change for Quality of Life (measure : Short Form 36) after open and robot assisted renal transplantation | From just before the treatment and up to 30 days after the surgery was performed | Percentage of change for quality of life (measure : Short Form 36) for patients who performed open and robot assisted renal transplantation due to end stage renal disease. Scores of the Short Form-36 Health Survey vary between 0 and 100, a score of 0 corresponds to the lowest quality, while 100 indicates the highest quality. |
