title: Rehabilitation of haemodialysis and transplant patients in denmark.
abstract: An evaluation of the extent of rehabilitation of 159 haemodialysis patients and 36 transplant patients from 6 of the 9 Danish nephrological centers was carried out. Half of the patients experienced their working capacity to be severely reduced prior to treatment and the percentage did not change during treatment. At the time of interview 88 percent of the patients received full disablement support and only ten per cent had retained their previous vocational position.
