There are some coping strategies such as active coping and focused on the problem appear to be associated with positive psychological results, such as a better adaptation to the new status of sick; in Chronic Renal Failure While coping by avoidance, confrontation, of distance, of self-control and escape appears to be associated with negative psychological outcomes, such as depression and anxiety. In the period between January - March 2012 were investigated 22 patients with Renal Chronic Failure were entered in the service of medicine internal of the Ambato Hospital, of which 16 patients had a low level of self-esteem, 5 patients a normal level and 1 patient a high level of self-esteem. Within the more coping strategy for patients with chronic renal failure was the "disengagement behavioral" with a percentage of 9.2, then "Acceptance" with 9, the "cognitive disengagement" with 8.7, suggesting strategies that do not help to lead to disease and the least used were "Planning" with 7.1, "Positive reinterpretation" and the "focus and release and release emotions" with 6.4 and finally the "active coping" with a 5.9. So it shows that the low self-esteem level influences in a negative way at the time of adopting a strategy of coping that is not adequate to combat the disease.
