Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to clarify nursing intervention approach to improve the quality of life (QOL) of children liver transplant recipients and their parents. Nine parent-child dyads were enrolled and all children were donor liver transplant recipients. Members of the parent-child dyads completed the questionnaires and participated in semi-structured interviews. The results showed that the post-transplantation daily life of the parent-child dyads had four distinct patterns. In addition, perspectives for nursing intervention approach to improve the QOL were elucidated.
