“…Studies developed with a sample of this population described some of these strategies, such as social isolation, family reorganization, use of preventive measures such as alcohol gel and mask. These strategies are in line with those advocated as a way to prevent disease contamination in the general population 12,[16][17] .…”

Objective: to understand the experience of patients undergoing liver transplantation during the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: exploratory and qualitative research, developed in a reference hospital in liver transplantation, in the city of Florianópolis, Brazil. Participants were liver transplant patients between the years 2011 and 2021. Data collection conducted through a semi-structured script and data analysis performed according to content analysis. Results: from the participation of 23 patients, two categories of analysis emerged: “Perceptions about social isolation”, with results related to coping and feelings related to social isolation; and “Actions and information: patients, support network and health services”, revealing the meanings of strategies and changes developed in life activities of daily living as well as challenges faced with information and health services during the pandemic period. Conclusion: the study was able to understand liver transplant patients’ experience in the face of the challenges they face during the pandemic. It allowed to visualize coping strategies, feelings and meanings based on recipients’ perspective. As a contribution, it presents possibilities for achieving improvements in services and attention to weaknesses in health services, providing opportunities for reflections to improve this care and considering the specificities and complexities of the postoperative period of liver transplantation.

RESUMO Objetivo: compreender a vivência do paciente submetido ao transplante hepático na pandemia da COVID-19. Método: pesquisa exploratória, de abordagem qualitativa desenvolvida em hospital de referência em transplante hepático, na cidade de Florianópolis, Brasil; os participantes foram pacientes transplantados hepáticos entre os anos de 2011 e 2021. Coleta de dados conduzida por meio de roteiro semiestruturado e análise dos dados realizada conforme análise de conteúdo. Resultados: da participação dos 23 pacientes, duas categorias de análise emergiram: “percepções acerca do isolamento social” com resultados relacionados aos enfrentamentos e sentimentos referentes ao isolamento social e “e “ações e informações: paciente, rede de apoio e serviços de saúde” desvelando os significados das estratégias e mudanças desenvolvidas nas atividades de vida diária bem como os desafios em face das informações e dos serviços de saúde durante o período da pandemia. Conclusão: o estudo foi capaz de compreender a vivência dos pacientes transplantados hepáticos ante os desafios enfrentados por eles durante a pandemia. Permitiu visualizar estratégias de enfrentamento, sentimentos e significados com base na perspectiva do próprio receptor. Como contribuição, apresenta possibilidades de alcance de melhorias nos serviços e de atenção às fragilidades dos serviços de saúde, oportunizando reflexões para a melhoria desse cuidado, considerando as especificidades e complexidades do pós-operatório do transplante hepático.

“…An approach of continuous improvement is particularly critical because SOT recipients have reported their willingness to use telehealth for certain care services, including synchronous and asynchronous communication with their care providers [11]. While the existing literature has examined the experiences of SOT recipients in relation to transplant care delivered through telecommunications technologies [8,[12][13][14][15], evidence is insufficient to fully understand their experiences. Many studies assessed satisfaction of SOT recipients using questionnaires that have not been psychometrically tested [16,17].…”

Telehealth has become widely available to solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients during the COVID-19 pandemic. While evidence suggests that telehealth serves as an acceptable alternative for most SOT recipients, their satisfaction and its context remain unclear. This study used a mixed methods approach to investigate the perspectives of SOT recipients (i.e., liver, kidney, and simultaneous liver-kidney) on the benefits and disadvantages of telehealth. A total of 252 adult SOT recipients completed an online survey that quantitatively assessed telehealth experience and satisfaction. Fifteen of them further shared their perspectives by participating in either a focus group or individual interview. Approximately 70% of online survey participants had previously used telehealth for their transplant care. The quantitative data documented that, while recipients were mostly satisfied with telehealth, especially with its effectiveness and convenience, they were less satisfied with the reliability of navigating the telehealth system. The qualitative data further showed that telehealth could be less effective for SOT recipients who perceived themselves as clinically and/or socially vulnerable, needed urgent care, and were concerned about privacy. These findings suggest that the plan for using telehealth to provide transplant care should prioritize personalization, considering unique needs and preferences of each SOT recipient.
