Participants expressed the need for comprehensive posttransplant care, including mental health support, family education and guidance on returning to work. Structured support in managing physical fitness, tailored to individual preferences, was also recognised as important.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>The study underscores the necessity for a biopsychosocial approach to posttransplant care that addresses the multifaceted challenges faced by kidney transplant recipients. A multidisciplinary approach, tailored support, education and individualised exercise programmes are crucial for enhancing their overall well-being and integrating rehabilitation into their daily lives, considering both physical and psychosocial aspects.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":16947,"journal":{"name":"Journal of renal care","volume":"50 4","pages":"445-453"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141759409","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants experienced difficulty integrating diet and medication in daily life, especially at social gatherings. They felt separated from others when special menus were provided for them or struggled when choosing between high and low phosphate-containing food. A new awareness of self and others arose, especially their position among families and friends, and how they presented themselves and their social identity to others. Likewise, a new social code manifested itself, which was difficult to accept. Most participants experienced that diet and medication were accompanied by a moral responsibility of whether to accept prepared food with high phosphorus content or not, which affected commensality.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusion</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Patients were often nonadherent to hyperphosphatemia treatment at social gatherings.
