Abstract

The success of a transplant in the long term depends to a large extent on the taking of immunosuppressant treatments and its follow-up. Therapeutic education plays an important role in the follow-up of transplant patients and in nurses' daily practice. It is integrated into the patient's pre-transplant care.
