Establishment of transplant follow-up management system and improve the life-quality of patients

Abstract

Objective To increase the normative follow-up rate of organ transplant recipients, and to improve their long-term survival rate of patients and their life quality. Methods Establish a normative follow-up management system of organ transplantation, improve the follow-up rules and link management, strengthen the whole-course health education and provide comfort and warm service for patients. Results (1) The results of patients/renal survival rates at different times indicated that the 1 year, 3 year and 5 year patients/renal survival rates in the normative follow-up group were significantly higher than that in the random follow-up group, P<0.05.(2)The 1-year follow-up results for the outpatients indicated that no difference in one-year follow-up rate were observed in both groups (98.4% vs.97.5%, P=0.128). And the 3 year and 5 year follow-up rates in the normative follow-up group were statistically significantly higher than that in the random follow-up group (90.1% vs.85.5%, 88.3% vs.55.3%, P<0.001 ). ConclusionEstablishment of the sound and normative follow-up management system of organ transplantation was helpful to improve the long-term survival rates of patients and their life quality.
