Abstract:
Objective By discussing the state of lifestyle as well as affecting factors of kidney transplant recipients,to provide more health education content and basis for their physical and psychological health.Method With internationally accepted Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile (HPLP),we surveyed the lifestyle of the selected 104 long-term follow-up cases of kidney transplant recipients.At the same time,163 sex-and age-matched healthy volunteers,who had no obvious abnormalities in the medical test,were chosen.Result For HPLP scores among the 104 cases of recipients,20 cases were excellent,67 cases good,17 cases common,and none was inferior.As a whole,its excellent rate was 83.65%.As for 129 healthy volunteers,their overall excellent rate was 70.55%.The HPLP scores for the nutrition behavior ranked top in kidney transplant recipients,followed by healthy responsibility behavior,and lowest for exercise behavior.For the healthy volunteers,the HPLP scores for interpersonal support behavior ranked top,followed by nutrition behavior,and lowest for healthy responsibility.Correlation analysis revealed that the HPLP scores in kidney transplant recipients were significantly and positively correlated with age (r =0.307,P =0.002) and educational level (r=0.370,P =0.000),and not with gender,ethnicity,occupation and kidney sources (P>0.05).The HPLP scores in idney transplant recipients were higher than those in healthy volunteers,among which self-actualization and healthy responsibility showed statistically significant differences (P < 0.05),there was no significant difference in exercise,nutrition,interpersonal support and stress management between recipients and healthy volunteers (P>0.05).Conclusion The HPLP scores in kidney transplants was higher than in healthy volunteers,thereinto,stress management behavior and exercise behavior were relatively weak,which were the focused improvement projects of lifestyle of kidney transplant recipients.
