RESUMO

The quality of sleep is one of the factors that affect quality of life after renal transplantation. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of sleep disorders and evaluate the variables that affect the quality of sleep in the early years of renal transplantation. This is a prospective observational study in which subjects were addressed in two phases (phase 1: 3 to 6 months and phase 2: 12 and 15 months after renal transplantation). The instruments used were the Quality Score Pittsburgh Sleep (PSQI), the Quality of Life Questionnaire: Short-form SF-36, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) Scale Karnofsky. Also was done a survey of the socio-demographic data and SPSS program was used to obtain the graphs and statistical analysis. There were no significant differences in demographic characteristics between patients with and without sleep disturbance in phases 1 and 2. We found no changes in sleep patterns during the study. There was a worsening of the scores for vitality and emotional aspects of phase 1 to phase 2. In other scores did not differ in the stages analyzed. We observed a significant increase in BMI of these patients over the first two years of kidney transplantation. However, with regard to age, sex and donor type were not significant differences. Conclusion: Sleep quality in renal transplant patients did not change during the study period (average of Phase 1 and Phase 2 36.7%, 38.3%). However, significant differences were found between sleep quality and perceived quality of life in the areas of vitality and emotional aspects
