Currently more than 70 percent of long-term hemodialysis patients can all return to their jobs, making a contribution to society while enjoying the pleasures of family and life. Hence, hemodialysis patients are relatively active. Correspondingly, among kidney transplant patients, nearly 20 percent cannot go back to work (mostly stemming from insufficient pre-transplant psychological evaluation and guidance).
其次，長期透析治療患者超過百分之七十以上的人都能重返工作崗位，貢獻社會，並享受其家庭生活與人生，故透析治療是積極的；相對的，腎移植成功的人中有近百分之廿的人無法重回工作崗位（多數根源於移植前心理評估與輔導不足）。
