Abstract

Objective: To survey the proportion of patients wishing for a kidney transplant among patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis at the Nephrology and Dialysis Department, Military Hospital 175. Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study surveying 151 patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis at the Nephrology and Dialysis Department, Military Hospital 175 from January 2023 - December 2023. Results: The average age in the study was 53.3 ± 15.8 years old, of which the proportion of women was nearly equal to that of men, mainly patients with a high school degree accounting for 76.8%. Patients wishing for a kidney transplant were 54.3% (95% CI: 46.4 - 62.3). Through analysis, factors related to the proportion of patients wishing to receive a kidney transplant include patients under the age of 50, male with a high school education or higher (p<0.05). In addition, we noted that the patient did not have cardiovascular disease, lung disease, hepatitis (p<0.05). Conclusion: A high rate of patients have a willingness to receive kidney transplants 54,3%. Male patients under 50 years old with a high school education who do not suffer from cardiovascular, pulmonary, or hepatitis diseases have an increased likelihood of willingness to receive a kidney transplant.
