Abstract :
Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education:
The expansion of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) joined with the understanding that
life may no longer be imaginable without renal replacement therapy (dialysis or kidney
transplantation) and medical intervention can lead to many physical and mental problems.
Several studies included anxiety, noncompliance with diet or medication, serious depression,
and sexual problems among ESRD patients.
