Primary outcomes

  1. Pain after lung transplantation

    Time frame: one month

    Mean pain score in the 48 hours preceding the consultation performed one month after lung transplantation. Pain score is determined by the patient on a visual analogue scale (VAS) .

Secondary outcomes

  1. Pain before and after lung transplantation

    Time frame: 6 months

    Pain score is determined by the patient on a visual analogue scale (VAS) at the time of inscription on waiting list for transplantation, at the 8th day post transplantation, one and four months after transplantation

  2. Anxiety

    Time frame: 6 months

    Anxiety is determined by the patient on a visual analogue scale (VAS) at the time of inscription on waiting list for transplantation, at the 8th day post transplantation, one and four months after transplantation.

    Anxiety is also determined by

    • the State Anxiety Inventory and the Trait Anxiety Inventory at the time of inscription on waiting list for transplantation,
    • the State Anxiety Inventory one and four months after transplantation.
  3. Coping

    Time frame: 6 months

    Quality of life related to the procedure is determined by the patient using a specific questionnaire (Ringsted et al. Pain-related impairment of daily activities after thoracic surgery: a questionnaire validation. The Clinical Journal of Pain 2013;29(9):791-799) four months after transplantation
