Abstract
Self-ratings for HRQoL were high for all dimensions for the entire sample, and remained relatively similar even for medium- and long-term survivors. HRQoL was dependent on incidence of infections, rejections and the onset of BOS. Despite differences in life expectancy of LTx patients compared with the healthy population, HRQoL self-ratings were within similar ranges.
