Web-Based Tailored Nursing Intervention to Support Medication Self-management: A Qualitative Study of the Experience of Kidney Transplant Recipients.

Optimal adherence to immunosuppressive medication is essential to kidney graft success. A Web-based tailored virtual nursing intervention was developed to promote medication adherence and support self-management among kidney transplant recipients. A qualitative study was undertaken in a hospital setting in Montreal (Canada) to document how users experience the intervention and to explore medication intake self-management behaviors.

Development and validation of PART (Pharmacotherapy Assessment in Renal Transplant Patients) criteria to assess drug-related problems in an outpatient renal transplant population: A cross-sectional study.

Kidney transplant recipients are at risk of pharmacological interactions and adverse drug reactions. Community pharmacists are uniquely poised to detect and intervene in cases of drug-related problems. The aims of this study were to develop and validate a list of explicit criteria to be used by community pharmacists to assess drug-related problems in kidney transplant patients, and to assess their frequency and their determinants.
