Abstrakt: End-stage renal disease patients who have impaired physical function are denied for transplantation by clinicians concerned about graft/survival outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of physical function on graft/survival outcomes at 1-year post-kidney transplantation. Data were analyzed from the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients regarding kidney transplantation patients (N = 218,657) between January 1, 2000 and September 2, 2014. The hazard ratio of 1-year graft failure for deceased donor transplantation recipients needing total assistance was 1.60 (95% confidence interval [CI] = [1.303, 1.965], p <.01). Patients needing none or some assistance did not demonstrate a significant difference in 1-year graft failure in either deceased or living donor transplantation. The hazard ratio of 1-year death for those needing total assistance was 2.52 (95% CI = [2.087, 3.045], p <.001) in deceased donor kidney transplantation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
