Assessing associations between medication adherence and potentially modifiable psychosocial variables in pediatric kidney transplant recipients and their families

Abstract: Post-transplant immunosuppressant (IS) medication adherence is essential for long-term graft survival and relatively little is known about psychosocial barriers that interfere with optimum medication adherence in pediatric kidney transplant patients. The objective of this prospective observational cohort study was to assess the impact of modifiable psychosocial variables on medication adherence. Our hypothesis was that parental stress, dysfunctional parent-child interactions and child behavior problems would b… Show more

“…Furthermore, from a clinical perspective the refinement and clarification of the elements that contribute to parenting stress may be helpful to the practitioner who is interested in specifically targeting issues for intervention or identifying families at risk of dropping out. For example, although compliance with medical and behavioral treatment for children has been shown 52 WHITESIDE-MANSELL ET AL. to be related to parenting stress (Gerson, Furth, Neu, & Fivush, 2004;Kazdin, Mazurick, & Bass, 1993), it is not clear what aspect of stress is most critical. From a program development point of view, clarification of the components of parenting and its stressors may help assist in defining and refining program goals and objectives.…”

“…CONCLUSION: Up to 25% of BKPyVAN develop later than two years after KTx, possibly as a consequence of a reduced BKPyV-specific cellular immune response of pediatric patients. 4 Hence, in pediatric kidney allograft recipients, surveillance for BKPyV viremia should be extended beyond the 2nd year posttransplant.

“…Risk factors associated with nonadherence include emotional and behavioral problems (Maikranz et al, 2007), poor healthrelated quality of life (Devine et al, 2011), parental stress and parent-child relationship (Gerson et al, 2004). There is also an association between psychosocial risk factors pretransplant and outcomes posttransplant (Vanderlann et al, 2015).…”

“…9 Another point to be considered is the association between the worsening in the QoL and the morbimortality of CKD patients. 34,35 QoL is a multidisciplinary concept that consists in the perception of the individual of his/her position in life, in the context of the culture and system of values in which he/she lives and in relation to his/her objectives, expectations, standards and concerns. QoL worsening interferes with the prognosis of these patients.…”
