The tool was a 4 part questionnaire including   age, sex, marital status , work status, education, the duration of the haemodialysis received before   the trans plant and the duration of the transplant. The second part posed twelve questions regarding   the nursing care they received during hospitalization. The third part with eight questions inquired   about the care they received from the health team other than nurses and finally their satisfaction   from the care they received immediately before discharge was evaluated with ten questions. The   subjects were asked to check in columns indicating highly satisfied, moderat ely satisfied and the   least satisfied answers to the test questions regarding satisfaction from the nursing care received   while hospitalized.   The findings are presented in thirty-eight tables and a line graph. Further values such as mean   and standard deviations and inferal statistical test were employed.   82% of the subjects said they were highly satisfied with the nursing care they received from   nurses during hospitalization, 16% were moderately satisfied and only 2% were the least satisfied.   On the other hand 64% were highly satisfied from the care they received from other members of   the health team, 35% were moderately satisfied and 1% the least satisfied. Finally regarding the   care rendered to patients immediately before discharge, 56% were highly satisfied, 37% moderately   satisfied and 7% the least satisfied. The overall estimation revealed that 76% of the subjects were   highly satisfied, 22% moderately satisfied and only 2% the least satisfied.   To correlate the demographic data with the subjects ' satisfaction score X2 and pierson   correlation al test and regression equation were employed.   The findings showed no significant correlation between subjects level of satisfaction from   nursing care received while hospitalized and immediately before discharge with the demographic   characteristics except the duration of kidney transplant. The longer the duration the higher was the   subjects' satisfaction.   Based on the findings recommendations for implication of the findings in all health fields and   further research was made. It is hoped that the findings will serve for providing better nursing care   for patients with kidney transplant. %> http://ijn.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1203-en.pdf %P 5-9 %& 5 %! %9 Research %L A-10-530-195 %+ %G eng %@ 2008-5931 %[ 1998
