“…More recent studies show suicide to be less prevalent in contemporary ESRD populations, 24,99 although the rate is 84% higher than in the general population. 99 Alcohol dependence and hospitalization for substance abuse and mental illness were strongly associated with subsequent suicide in the ESRD population. 99 This recent study shows definitively that populations that withdraw from treatment and those that actively commit suicide represent different clinical entities, highlighting that suicide is associated with alcohol and drug dependency and the presence of mental illness.…”

“…Studies by Kurella et al (2005) shows that from 465,563 patients, 44,465 (9.6%) withdrew from dialysis before death and 264 (0.0005%) died from suicide in the USA. Other researchers have shown that withdrawal from dialysis occurred in 9-20% of ESRD patients and was more likely to occur in the older, white, female patients (Leggat et al, 1997;Port et al, 1989).…”

Introduction: Research on depression in local patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is sparse. Thus, this study aims to examine the frequency and severity of depression among ESRD patients and relate depression with their coping skills. Methods: A cross-sectional study using universal sampling method was conducted at several dialysis centers in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Johor, Malaysia. The Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) and the Brief COPE scale were used to measure depression and coping skill, respectively. Results: The study involved 274 ESRD patients, comprising of 183 hemodialysis and 91 continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients. The result showed that 21.1% of the patients experienced moderate to severe depression. Several components of coping skill were associated with depression. However, only two components in the Brief COPE (behavioral disengagement and self-blame) were identified as predictors.

“…21 In this study it was evident that the greater quantity of patients without depression was found in the period less than four years of dialysis (Table 5), which differs from the findings of some studies. 13,35,[38][39][40][41] This fact may be caused perhaps by a sense of hope in these patients that in a short time will get rid of this situation, some by the hope placed in a possible transplant 22,35,42 , others did not understand what it means to be a carrier of a chronic renal disease and its implications, then thinking that there may be a cure and that the treatment is temporary. 24 However, although the major number of patients without depression were found in the period inferior to four years of dialysis, paradoxally the most of them, among the ones that present the disorder is also found in this same period, what it is in agreement with studies previously cited.…”

Objective: to analyze the occurrence of depression and quality of life in renal patients before and after transplantation. Method: quantitative, descriptive, exploratory, cross-sectional study. Three instruments were used to collect data: a questionnaire for characterization of the sample, the Beck depression inventory (BDI) and the SF-36 questionnaire, to evaluate the quality of life. The sample consisted of two groups: one in pre-transplant patients (59 patients) and the other in renal transplant patients (63 patients), totaling 122 patients. Results: the majority of patients, in both groups, did not present depression, corresponding to 88.9% of the transplanted patients and 79.6% of the pre-transplant patients. Quality of life was higher in transplant patients than in those awaiting the procedure. The SF-36 domains that determined the best quality of life in the transplanted patients were functional capacity (p = 0.001), pain (p = 0.027), general health status (p = 0.049) and vitality (p = 0.000). Conclusion: this study showed a low occurrence of depression in patients both in the pre-and post-renal transplantation. Quality of life was higher in the transplant group. Descriptors: Depression, Quality of Life; Organ Transplantation; Chronic Disease. RESUMOObjetivo: analisar a ocorrência de depressão e a qualidade de vida em pacientes renais no pré e pós-transplante. Método: estudo quantitativo, descritivo, exploratório, de coorte transversal. Foram aplicados três instrumentos para a coleta de dados: um questionário para caracterização da amostra, o inventário Beck de depressão (BDI) e o questionário SF-36, para avaliação da qualidade de vida. A amostra foi composta por dois grupos, um de pacientes no pré-transplante renal (59 pacientes) e o outro de transplantados renais (63 pacientes), totalizando 122 pacientes. Resultados: a maioria dos pacientes, em ambos os grupos, não apresentava depressão, correspondendo a 88,9% dos transplantados e 79.6% de pacientes no pré-transplante. A qualidade de vida mostrou-se superior nos pacientes transplantados em relação aos que aguardavam o procedimento. Os domínios do questionário SF-36 que determinaram a melhor qualidade de vida nos pacientes transplantados foram capacidade funcional (p = 0,001), dor (p = 0,027), estado geral de saúde (p = 0,049) e vitalidade (p = 0,000). Conclusão: esse estudo mostrou uma baixa ocorrência de depressão nos pacientes tanto no pré, como no pós-transplante renal. A qualidade de vida mostrou-se superior no grupo de transplantados.
