Abstract

Introduction: Depression is the fourth most disabling disease affecting people worldwide. It is also the most common psychological disorder among patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The present study aimed to assess and compare the depression level between HEMODIALYSIS patients and rental transplant recipients.Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted to recruit 180 patients (61 HEMODIALYSIS patients and 47 renal transplant recipients) during 1383-84 in Sanandaj city. Depression level was measured using the Beck depression scale (BDI). All statistics were computed by the SPSS.win software using chi-square and t-tests.Results: The mean age of HEMODIALYSIS patients and RENAL TRANSPLANTATION patients was 47.4±15.5 and 39.9±9.7 years respectively which was significantly different (P<0.003). Male and female participants didn’t show any significant difference in their depression level. A total of %93 of HEMODIALYSIS patients were depressed (mild to severe) compare to 56% in RENAL TRANSPLANTATION patients. Severe depression was found among %16.4 of HEMODIALYSIS patients and %6.4 of renal transplant recipients. Difference of depression level between these two groups were statistically significant (P<0.000). There were no significant difference between the level of depression and demographic factors of age, gender, marital status and education.Conclusion: The study revealed high rate of depression among HEMODIALYSIS patients and RENAL TRANSPLANTATION recipients which was much higher in the first group. Benefiting self-administrative test of BDI could prevent us mixing up the symptoms of ESRD with depression during assessing and screening depressed patients. Therefore, it offers a simple and economical method to diagnose and treat their depression among on time among.
