Štollová, Milena ; Kulhavá, Miluše (advisor) ; Pírková, Vendula (referee)
The thesis for a baccalaureate degree addresses the topic of overall wellbeing of the renal transplant recipient. It is divided into a theoretical and an empirical section. The theoretical section discusses the status of the patient with irreversible kidney failure whereby the method is transplantation. The outputs for the empirical section derive from a questionnaire-based survey performed with 113 adult transplant recipients once their renal transplant function has stabilized. The aim of the thesis was to compare parameters of renal function and physical condition with overall quality of life. After having defined five partial goals, a survey was conducted using non-standardized questionnaires. Its results were compared with renal markers and data obtained from standardized questionnaires. The partial goals related to physical and psychical condition, sleep, concerns about one's future, and a socio-spiritual component.

No correlation was demonstrated between renal function markers on the one hand, and physical and psychical condition on the other.
