Brief Summary:
In this study, doctors will observe how and when pediatric patients who have received a solid organ transplant take their prescribed medication, and determining if there are reasons that keep these patients from taking all of their medicine.

Condition or disease
Organ Transplantation

Detailed Description:
Adhering to treatment regimens after solid organ transplantation is critical for the prevention of complications, including acute and chronic organ rejection. It is important to recognize the perceived barriers to following treatment regimens and identify ways to address these barriers early in the course of treatment.

Group/Cohort
Cross-Sectional Study Group
Cross-sectional comparison of perceived barriers to adherence to post-transplant immunosuppressant regimens in parents/legal guardians of children 0-11 years versus adolescents 12-21 years
Longitudinal Study Group
Subset of Cross-Sectional Study Group to evaluate whether perceived barriers to adherence increase with time during the first year following transplantation


Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Perceived barriers to adherence in adolescents and parent/legal guardian of pediatric patients [ Time Frame: 1 month post transplant ]
    Barriers assessed using Brief Medication Questionnaire (BMQ); Adolescent Medication Barrier Scales questionnaire (AMBS); and Parent Medication Barriers Scale questionnaire (PMBS)

  2. Change in perceived barriers to adherence from baseline to follow-up [ Time Frame: 12 months post transplant ]
    Barriers assessed using Brief Medication Questionnaire (BMQ); Adolescent Medication Barrier Scales questionnaire (AMBS); and Parent Medication Barriers Scale questionnaire (PMBS)
