Orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) represents an improvement in the quality of life (QoL) in the short to medium term. However, there is little information about QoL in the long-term post-transplant and its relation with psychological variables such as self-esteem.
To analyze the perceived QoL in relation to the level of self-esteem in patients over 60 years of age who received an OLT more than 10 years ago.
Cross-sectional descriptive study. Including patients from the Hospital Clínico Universitario Virgen de la Arrixaca (HCUVA).
to evaluate the QoL: EuroQol-5D questionnaire; to evaluate health status: 1. social transfer index and 2. visual analog scale (VAS); to measure self-esteem level: Rosenberg scale. Sociodemographic and clinical variables. Nonparametric analysis (P < .05).
Analyzed 46 patients, 70% men (n = 32) and 30% women (n = 14); mean age of 70.85 ± 6.7 years and mean years of post-OLT survival of 15.91 ± 5.3 years. Average score in QoL: 0.8 ± 0.17 in the social transfer index and 77.07 ± 16.82 in the VAS. Average level of self-esteem: 34 ± 3.55 point. When analyzing the variables, there are no differences in age or post-OLT years. There are significant differences according to sex (P = .001). However, the diagnosis influences the patient's perception of QoL (P < .001). The post-OLT survival correlates negatively with social transfer index (P = .017) and self-esteem level (P = .045). In addition, those patients living in the city presented a higher level of self-esteem (P = .03).
Sex, diagnosis, post-OLT years, social environment, and place of residence have an influence on the QoL and self-esteem of patients.
原位肝移植（OLT）在短期至中期可改善生活质量（QoL）。然而，关于移植后长期的生活质量及其与自尊等心理变量的关系，相关信息较少。
分析10多年前接受OLT的60岁以上患者的生活质量感知与自尊水平之间的关系。
横断面描述性研究。纳入来自阿利克斯卡圣母大学临床医院（HCUVA）的患者。
用于评估生活质量：欧洲五维健康量表问卷；用于评估健康状况：1. 社会转移指数和2. 视觉模拟量表（VAS）；用于测量自尊水平：罗森伯格量表。社会人口统计学和临床变量。非参数分析（P <.05）。
分析了46例患者，70%为男性（n = 32），30%为女性（n = 14）；平均年龄为70.85±6.7岁，OLT后平均生存年限为15.91±5.3年。生活质量平均得分：社会转移指数为0.8±0.17，VAS为77.07±16.82。自尊平均水平：34±3.55分。分析变量时，年龄或OLT后年限无差异。根据性别有显著差异（P =.001）。然而，诊断影响患者对生活质量的感知（P <.001）。OLT后生存与社会转移指数呈负相关（P =.017），与自尊水平呈负相关（P =.045）。此外，居住在城市的患者自尊水平较高（P =.03）。
性别、诊断、OLT后年限、社会环境和居住地点对患者的生活质量和自尊有影响。
