Abstract:
Although living kidney donors' experiences with donation have been studied, questions of potential bias in retrospective donor reports remain. This study examined the experience of living kidney donation from 3 perspectives: those of the donor, the recipient, and a third party involved with the donation (ie, a donor triad). Surveys were completed with 174 donor triads to examine triad members' perceptions of donors' concerns before transplantation, whether these concerns came true after transplantation, the donors' experiences with surgery and recovery, and whether they would make the same decision again today. Triad members all agreed that donors were highly satisfied with their donation experience and that the relationship between recipient and donor improved after transplantation. Although recipients and third parties correctly identified the donors' primary concerns, they underestimated the prevalence of 16 of 18 donor concerns, including the donors' willingness to make the same decision again. Recipients also overestimated how painful and difficult the surgery and recovery were for donors. The results suggest that retrospective studies of donors may not be marred by significant misreporting or memory biases and that better education about the donation experience for the entire donor triad might provide better social support for donors, reduce recipients' guilt about donors' pain, and increase donation rates overall.

Abstract:
This survey analyses the scope and intensity of informal care for the elderly residing in their homes in Slovenia and their determinants: the residing municipality of the care recipient, geographical distance between the informal carer and the care recipient, to the care recipients’ and the care givers’ individual characteristics. With the increasing private out-of-pocket financial contribution, which is determined by municipality, the scope and intensity of informal care shows a significant increase as shown by regression analysis. Inter-municipal cooperation and the introduction of gradual private financial contribution are proposed as tools for improving accessibility of social home care in Slovenia.

Abstract:
Abstract Dementia family caregivers are routinely enlisted as proxy assessors of care recipient quality of life (QOL). Proxy assessment is not ideal because proxy assessments differ systematically from self-assessments and the assessment process can elicit negative affect from family caregivers. Prompting adoption of the care recipient’s perspective can enhance assessment congruence and may improve the emotional experience for assessors. This study explored family caregivers’ cognitive and affective experiences during QOL proxy assessments made from both their own and care recipients’ perspectives. Thirty-six dementia family caregivers were recruited from senior service agencies. Subjects completed the Quality of Life-Alzheimer Disease (QOL-AD), Caregiver Version using standard instructions to assess QOL across thirteen domains of their care recipient’s life without specifying the perspective to be used. Subjects were next asked to repeat the QOL-AD with instructions to adopt the perspective of their care recipient, as they imagined it to be. Subjects were then interviewed about what they thought and felt during each proxy assessment experience. Content analysis indicated that spontaneous perspective shifts and response shifts frequently occurred. Most subjects (91.7%) reported changed thinking for one or more QOL-AD domains when they were prompted to switch perspectives. Over half (61.12%) reported changed affect when switching perspectives and 90.9% of those experiencing changed affect reported affective improvement. Little or no affective change was reported by 38.89%. Findings suggest awareness of perspective can enhance clinical interpretation of proxy assessed QOL and can inform clinical response to dementia family caregivers who experience negative emotions while proxy reporting QOL.

Abstract:
In living-donor liver transplantation, graft selection is especially important for the safety of the live donor and an acceptable outcome for the recipient. The essential medical requirements for living liver donation at Jikei University Hospital are as follows: an adult aged 65 years or younger, in good general condition, with partial liver volume of more than 35% of the standard liver volume (SLV) for the recipient, and without severe liver steatosis. Based on our criteria, we performed 13 living-donor liver transplantations between 2007 and 2013, including 1 retransplantation. Three cases were outside our standard donor criteria, including age (18 and 66 years) and 33% graft volume (GV) to SLV ratio for the recipient on preoperative volumetry using computed tomography. In 2 cases, the actual GV to SLV ratio at transplantation was less than 35%. Median postoperative hospital stay was 11 days for the donors, and 29 days for the recipients. All donors returned to their preoperative status, and all recipients were discharged in good condition. Our medical requirements for living liver donation seem to be acceptable because of the good outcome.

Abstract:
Abstract Research on advance care planning (ACP) has highlighted major contributors to the completion of ACP documents. One of such contributors is knowledge about ACP, such as an advance directive or living will (LW). This study aims to 1) understand the initial exposure to ACP knowledge among informal caregivers’ of chronically or seriously ill older adults and to 2) explore an association between caregivers’ advance care planning and that of their care-recipients. Forty-four primary caregivers of cognitively impaired older adults were recruited at various community settings. A mixed-method design was used to qualitatively interview each participant face-to-face about his or her initial experience with ACP and to quantitatively ask if the participant completed a LW and if the care-recipient completed one as well. Qualitative content analysis of participant responses revealed that their initial experiences with ACP were mostly through their care-recipients, such as the care-recipient’s ACP in previous hospitalizations or legal consultations. Chi-square test for independence was conducted to explore whether there is an association between caregivers’ LW completion and that of care-recipients. The results show that there is a significant relationship between the two variables: χ2 (1, n = 44) = 8.84, p < .001, φ = .49. These findings suggest that secondary experiences with close one’s ACP may serve as facilitator to one’s ACP completion. Therefore, efforts to promote ACP should target a caregiver and care-recipient dyad so that caregivers as well as care-recipients may learn about and complete ACP documents.

Abstract:
With the notable growth in the qualitative investigation of living kidney donation, there is value in aggregating results from this body of research to learn from accumulated experience. The present paper aims to draw a complete portrait of living donors' and recipients' experience of donation by metasummarizing published studies. We found that donors' experience, particularly the decision-making process, has been more extensively studied than the recipients' perspective. Donors differ in their initial level of motivation to donate but on the whole report positive experiences and personal benefits. They also identify difficult periods and the need for additional resources. Recipients report an often positive but more ambivalent reaction to donation. In terms of relational issues between dyads, while the topic remains understudied, the donor-recipient relationship and gift reciprocity have received the most attention. Results are discussed in terms of their implications for future practice and research.

Abstract:
Background Despite the importance of family and its relationship to positive transplant outcomes, little is known about family experiences following organ transplantation from the perspective of the transplant recipients. The literature is also devoid of information that describes the family experiences of Muslim transplant recipients. Aims The purpose of this study was to describe Muslim transplant recipients’ family experiences following organ transplantation. Methods A hermeneutical phenomenological approach was employed to determine the emergent themes present in the data. The sample was composed of 12 Muslim organ transplant recipients (heart, kidney and liver) living in Iran. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with each participant. Results The primary constitutive pattern that emerged from the interview data was ‘Altered Family Relationships’ and three themes: fear in relationships, abnormal relationships, and the family at the centre of organ transplant issues. Conclusions There are several important findings in this study, notably that Muslim transplant recipients describe their family experiences following organ transplantation as ‘altered’ and not as they were pre-transplant. More research is needed that focuses on the family experience post-transplant, and how Muslim transplant recipient families are impacted by the transplant experience.

Abstract:
Sexual assault victims are more likely to disclose their experience to friends and family than formal support sources (e.g., police, counselors). As such, disclosure receipt is a relatively common occurrence, but little is known about the recipients’ disclosure experience. This study examined predictors of recipient emotional distress and positive and negative changes in the victim–recipient relationship postdisclosure among 69 female undergraduates at 3 universities. Predictors of distress included greater self-rated closeness to the victim and greater confusion about how to help. Positive changes were predicted by greater closeness and less responsibility attributed to the victim, and negative changes were predicted by less closeness, greater assigned responsibility, and greater perceived ineffectiveness of one’s help. Implications for improving the disclosure experience via psychoeducational interventions are presented.

Abstract:
Aim To review evidence about the experience of being the recipient of a donated heart, lungs, or heart and lungs. Design A systematic review (registered with PROSPERO: CRD42017067218), in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. Data sources Seven databases and Google Scholar were searched in May 2017 and July 2019 for papers reporting English-language research that had used qualitative methods to investigate experiences of adult recipients. Review methods Quality was assessed and results were analysed thematically. Results 24 papers (reporting 20 studies) were eligible and included. Their results were organised into three chronological periods: pre-transplant (encompassing the themes of ‘dynamic psychosocial impact’, ‘resources and support’), transplant (‘The Call’, ‘intensive care unit’), and post-transplant (‘dynamic psychosocial impact’, ‘management’, ‘rejection’). Sub-themes were also identified. It was evident that contemplating and accepting listing for transplantation entailed or amplified realisation of the precipitating illness’s existential threat. The period surrounding transplantation surgery was marked by profound, often surreal, experiences. Thereafter, although life usually improved, it incorporated unforeseen challenges. The transplantation clinic remained important to the recipient. The meaning of the clinic and its staff could be both reassuring (providing care and support) and threatening (representing onerous medical requirements and potential organ rejection). Conclusion This review has implications for the psychosocial care of transplant recipients and indicates the need for further research to gain insight into the experience of receiving a donated heart and/or lung. Impact Medical consequences of heart and lung transplantation are well documented; this is the first systematic review of research using qualitative methods to investigate the experience of heart, lung, and heart-and-lung transplantation. The psychosocial impact of transplantation was found to be dynamic and complex, with notable features evident before, during, and after transplantation. Clinic staff remained significant to recipients. It is clear that recipients need continuing psychosocial as well as medical support.

Abstract:
Background: For patients with end-stage organ failure receiving an organ is lifesaving. To be transplanted means a big change and adjustment in life with lifelong medication. The ambition for these patients is to go back and live as normal of life as possible. Aim: The aim of this study was to describe patients experiences of being organ transplanted. Method: The method used was a literature-based study based on qualitative scientific articles. A total of 9articles were analyzed with a qualitative content analysis. Result: After analysis 5 categories emerged; indebted, limitations in daily life, fear of organ rejection, concerns about medicine and a positive attitude to life. It showed that patient´s experiences of being organ transplanted are individual and unique. Some experiences are harder to deal with than others. Conclusion: Patients describe both negative as well as positive experiences of being transplanted. They express a need for more knowledge about their condition and a need that health care staff enhance their knowledge and understanding about their unique situation.

Abstract:
Background: Each year, thousands of patients around the world receive a new heart through heart transplant surgery. This is a lifesaving action and is most common among people with a heart disease that has led to a severe and non-treatable heart failure, for instance cardiomyopathy. But the process of receiving a new heart comes with challenges and the patients can experience emotional and physical difficulties. Aim: The aim of this study was to illuminate adult patients' experiences after heart transplantation. Method: A literature-based study was conducted and fourteen scientific qualitative articles were analyzed with a qualitative approach. Results: After analyzing the results, three main themes emerged; "To receive someone else's heart", "Learning how to live" and "To experience difficult emotions". Each main theme had three significant subthemes. The findings showed that a diversity of experiences arose among the patients after undergoing heart transplant surgery. They experienced gratitude, faith, concern, existential thoughts and sadness. They expressed support and the pursuit of gaining control in daily life as meaningful and essential. But they also had to handle limitations in their lives concerning the medical treatment, the continuous follow-ups and the diet restrictions. Conclusion: As a nurse it is fundamental to see the heart transplant patient as a unity and a unique person. Thus it is important to notice the patients' psychological difficulties that can arise after heart transplantation and not only observe the physical problems. Communicate with the patients in a motivating and caring way and try to understand their individual experiences of the situation in order to promote their health. In that way we can lay a valuable foundation for nursing.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Organtransplantation är ett livräddande ingrepp som genomförs när inga andra behandlingsalternativ finns. Patienten står inför en livslång behandling med immunsänkande läkemedel för att minska risken för avstötning. Det är en emotionellt krävande upplevelse för patienterna och deras familjer som gör att de är i behov av stöd av sjuksköterskan. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva patienters emotionella upplevelser före och efter organtransplantation. Metod: En litteraturstudie som baseras på kvalitativa omvårdnadsvetenskapliga artiklar. Resultat: Fyra kategorier identifierades, Tacksamhet och skuld på samma gång, Upplevelse av stöd, Känslomässig berg- och dalbana och Oro med tillhörande underkategorier. Slutsats: Organtransplantation var överlag en omtumlande upplevelse som var unik för varje patient. Sjuksköterskan behöver mer kunskap för att bidra till god vård då patienters upplevelser före och efter organtransplantation är relativt outforskat. Nyckelord: Livserfarenhet, mottagare, organtransplantation, patient, upplevelse.<br>Background: Organ transplantation is a life-saving intervention that is carried out when no other treatment options exist. The patient is facing a lifelong treatment with immunosuppressive drugs to reduce the risk of rejection. It is an emotionally demanding experience for the patients and their families are in need of support from the nurse. Aim: The purpose was to describe patients' emotional experiences before and after organ transplantation. Method: A literature study based on qualitative nursing science articles. Result: Four categories were identified, Gratitude and guilt at the same time, Experience of support, Emotional roller coaster and Concern with associated subcategories. Conclusion: Organ transplantation was generally a tumultuous experience unique to each patient. The nurse needs more knowledge to contribute to good care since patients' experiences before and after organ transplantation are relatively unexplored.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Hjärttransplantation har idag blivit en etablerad procedur som kan erbjudas till patienter som lider av svår hjärtsvikt. Patienterna har stort behov av omvårdnad en lång period efter att hjärttransplantationen är genomförd. Sjuksköterskans uppgift är att kunna möta hjärttransplanterade patienter i omvårdnadsarbetet. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva vuxna patienters upplevelser efter hjärttransplantation. Metod: För att utföra studien gjordes en allmän litteraturstudie. Tio vetenskapliga artiklar från tre olika omvårdnadsdatabaser granskades och analyserades. Resultat: I resultatet framkom tre huvudkategorier med sex underkategorier; Patienternas upplevda känslor med underkategorierna; Rädsla över att det nya hjärtat skulle sluta slå, Upplevelsen av att inte vara värdig sitt nya hjärta och Tankar och känslor om donatorn och donatorns familj. Huvudkategorin; Upplevelse av ny identitet och huvudkategorin: Upplevelse av stöd med följande underkategorier; Stöd från vården, Stöd från anhöriga och vänner och slutligen Stöd från andra hjärttransplanterade. Slutsatser: Upplevelserna av att leva med ett transplanterat hjärta varierade mellan patienterna och omfattade både psykiska och fysiska faktorer. Upplevelsen av att leva i osäkerhet kring sin hälsa skapade oro, rädsla och ångest hos patienterna som visade på ett stort behov av stöd från sjukvårdspersonalen. För en optimal personcentrerad omvårdnad behöver sjuksköterskan ha kunskap om hjärttransplanterade patienters upplevelser för att få ökad förståelse och kunna ge adekvat omvårdnad.<br>Background: Heart transplant has today become an established procedure offered to patients suffering from severe heart failure. The patients are in need of medical care for a long period of time after the heart transplant has been carried out. Moreover, it is the duty of the nurse to be able to respond to the patients in daily nursing care. Aim: The aim was to describe adult patients’ experiences after a hearttransplantation. Method: To carry out the study, a general literature study was used. The result was based on ten scientific articles from three healthcare databases which were reviewed and analyzed. Result: Three main categories and six subcategories emerged from the result; The patients’ experienced feelings with the following subcategories; Fear that the new heart would stop beating, The experience of not being worthy of the new heart and Thoughts and feelings about the donor and the donor's family. The main category; Experience of new identity and the main category: The presence of support with the following subcategories; Support from the healthcare, Support from relatives and friends and finally Support from other hearttransplanted. Conclusion: The experiences of living with a transplanted heart varied between patients and included both mental and physical components. The Patients’ experience of living in uncertainty about their health created difficulties with fear and anxiety and the patients showed a great need for support. To achieve the best person-centered care possible, the nurse needs to be familiar with the patient’s experiences to acquire an understanding so as to be able to give an appropriate nursing care.

Abstract:
An exploratory study was conducted to discover significant events and the feelings attached to these events during the experience of unemployment of social assistance recipients. Twenty social assistance recipients were interviewed. The subjects ranged in age from 25 to 44 and there were 11 females and 9 males. The phenomenological/critical incident methodology adapted by Borgen and Amundson (1984) was used. It was found that this group had an unemployment experience that could be best described as a "flat" experience with relatively few highs and a continual, pervasive string of lows. The most prominent critical incident was financial pressures and this factor seemed to dominate the experience of the great majority of respondents. Their experience was characterized by a continual struggle to financially meet survival needs, pessimism around job search, low self esteem and a battery of negative feelings around being on welfare. The results of this study will hopefully assist counsellors in understanding the experience of unemployment of social assistance recipients and lead to more effective therapeutic interventions for this population.<br>Education, Faculty of<br>Educational and Counselling Psychology, and Special Education (ECPS), Department of<br>Graduate

Full text
Abstract:
Live kidney transplants are a successful and efficient means of treating those with chronic renal failure. However, the procedure is associated with potential physical and psychosocial risks, such as operative complications and pressure to donate and receive. Recipients also often feel grateful, even 'indebted', to the donors and, consequently, this can affect their relationship with each other. Despite these issues, few studies have focused on the experiences of those involved in live transplantation. This study was, therefore, undertaken to provide an in-depth insight into this process from the participants' perspectives. Therefore, the aims of this qualitative, longitudinal study were to explore: > The experiences of donors and recipients throughout the live transplantation process > The relevance of the anthropological theory of 'gift exchange' as a framework for exploring and understanding the live kidney transplantation process > How a theoretically informed insight into these experiences may be used to inform and develop future research and clinical practice A qualitative, phenomenological approach was used to explore the experiences of 11 live kidney donors and their recipients in South-West England. Data were collected through a series of three semi-structured interviews, conducted pre- transplant and at three and ten months post-transplant. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and data coded into categories arising from participants' accounts. These findings were also considered within a theoretical framework of gift exchange. Live transplantation was the treatment of choice for all participants, especially recipients. All donors initially made an instantaneous, voluntary decision to donate and found the decision relatively easy to make. In contrast, recipients found accepting the donors' offer emotionally burdensome because of concern for their wellbeing. They were only really able to accept the transplant after discussing the matter with their donor and establishing that it was something that they really wanted to do. Recipients' lives were transformed by a successful transplant and they were subsequently very grateful to the donors for donating. Donors derived immense personal satisfaction from this outcome and it helped to confirm to them that what they had done had been worthwhile. However, the transplant rejected in one recipient and the effects of this failure were devastating. The provision of transplant services throughout this process were generally positively evaluated by participants, although several recommendations were suggested. Data from this study show that the experiences of participants interviewed, closely resembled the fundamental dynamics of the gift exchange process, thus supporting the hypothesis that this theory provides an appropriate framework for understanding the live transplantation process in these participants. The findings from this study have implications for clinical practice and future research in this area.

Full text
Abstract:
Positive health-related behaviour is particularly important for liver transplant recipients’ (LTRs) recovery. However, non-adherence in adolescents post-transplant is thought to be greater than, or equal to, 50%. Literature searches have found limited research into the area of young adults’ experiences of having a donated liver. Knowing more of their experience seems important to help inform practice to improve adherence and ultimately save lives. The present study aimed to construct a grounded theory of young adults’ experiences of having a liver transplant, in order to better understand how young adults may adjust following such experiences. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with twelve liver transplant recipients (LTRs; five female, seven male). Data were analysed using constructivist grounded theory. A model was constructed to capture the dynamic interactions between thirteen categories, resulting in four main themes: Finding Identity Post-Transplant, Carrying Responsibility, Unseen, Unspoken or Misunderstood Challenges and Adjusting to Life After Transplant. The study highlights the importance of the themes in psychological adjustment post-transplant. Understanding this process is imperative in order to improve health-related behaviours in a cohort with traditionally poor adherence. Implications for further research and clinical practice are discussed, including educating LTRs to raise their levels of self-efficacy, which have a positive impact on adherence.

Abstract:
Section A. The literature review critically considers the evidence relating to the psychological consequences of living-related renal transplantation. Circumscribed research has suffered from an assumptive bias and has identified only partial responses to transplantation, whilst considering recipients as a homogeneous group. Recommendations for the exploration of the encompassing experience of living-related renal transplantation from recipients' own position and understanding are made. Section B. The current study aimed to explore the experiences of living-related renal transplant recipients. Semi-structured interviews were undertaken with eight participants and Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was used to examine the transcripts. The analysis identified a total of twenty sub themes, which reflected the participants' experiences. From this, five super-ordinate themes were elicited: story of illness, kidney as a gift, uncertainty about the future, coping mechanisms and liberty. Clinical implications for practice include recommendations for health professionals conveying information, the provision of pre-operative information and education, systemic working between health professionals and post-transplant care facilities. Further research is required to examine the effects of gender on living-related transplantation, and the impact of transplantation on family members. Section C. The critical appraisal reflects upon the process and experience of conducting research. Learning points are considered from the difficulties faced, to inform future practice.

Abstract:
Aim/Purpose: This study examined how peer feedback, received and given face-to-face and on the course site, shapes the teacher’s image, from the student’s point of view as the one providing and receiving feedback. Background: This study examined the effect of receiving and giving peer feedback, face-to-face and on the course site, on forming the teacher’s image, from the student’s point of view as someone who provides and receives feedback. Methodology: The research question was, “How do preservice teachers experience giving and receiving public, oral and written, peer feedback on the teaching experience?” This is a qualitative study. Two hundred fifty-seven preservice teachers educated in teacher training institutions in Israel participated in the study. Contribution: The study attempted to fill the missing pieces in the experience of providing and receiving peer feedback in the process of training for a teaching certificate. The topic of feedback has been extensively researched, but mostly from the point of view of experts providing feedback to the student, whereas this study examined peer feedback. In addition, many studies have examined the topic of feedback mainly from the point of view of the recipient. By contrast, in this study, all the students both gave and received feedback, and the topic was examined from the perspective of both the feedback recipient and the feedback provider. It was found that receiving feedback and providing feedback are affected by the same emotional and behavioral influences, at the visible, concealed, and hidden levels. Findings: It was found that in oral feedback given by students face-to-face they took into account the feelings of the recipient of the feedback, more so than when feedback was given in writing on the course site. It was found also that most students considered it easier to provide feedback in writing than orally, for two reasons: first, it allowed them to edit and focus their feedback, and second, because of the physical distance from the student to whom the feedback applied. About 45% noted that the feedback they provided to others reflected their own feelings and difficulties. It was found that both giving and receiving feedback was influenced by the same emotional and behavioral layers: visible, concealed, and hidden. Recommendations for Practitioners: When an expert gives feedback, the expert has more experience than the students and wants to share this experience with others. This is not the case with peer feedback, where everybody is in the process of training, and the feedback is not necessarily expert. Therefore, clarification and discussion of feedback are of great importance for the development of both feedback provider and recipient. Recommendation for Researchers: About 45% of preservice teachers noticed that the feedback they provided to others stemmed from their own internal issues, and therefore dialogic feedback stimulated a sense of learning, empowerment, and professional development. Dialogic feedback may clarify for both provider and recipient what their habits, needs, and difficulties are and advance them in their professional development. Impact on Society: People must ask themselves whether they are in a position of conducting a dialogue or in a position of resistance to what is happening in the lesson. A sense of resistance to what is happening in the lesson may cause one to feel attacked and in need of defending oneself, and therefore to criticize. It is difficult to establish fruitful and enriching dialogue in a state of resistance, and with the desire to defend oneself and go on attack. Future Research: Knowledge of virtual feedback needs to be deepened. Does the feedback stem from the desire to advance the student who taught the lesson? Does the feedback stem from anger? etc.

Abstract:
The following text is an excerpt from the conference opening keynote address by architect Alejandro Aravena. Aravena, the recipient of the 2016 Pritzker Architecture Prize, artistic director of the 2016 Venice Architecture Biennale and Executive Director of elemental (Chile), proposed a new format for his keynote address. Instead of giving a lecture he held an unprecedented conversation with the audience. We could not capture this unique experience, but we have paraphrased a few fragments of this conversation in this text.
