Abstract
Adherence to medication improved significantly from before to after transplant. This kind of adherence after transplant was associated with adherence to medication before transplant and high scores on the personal control dimension of the Illness Perception Questionnaire before transplant. Therefore it might be useful to focus on patients with poor adherence to medication and low scores on the personal control dimension of the Illness Perception Questionnaire before transplant in order to design interventions for them.
