Summary

Background and Aim: Immunosuppressive therapies administered after chronic kidney disease and kidney transplantation are critically important for patients' life adaptation and the continued success of transplantation. However, the process of compliance with immunosuppressive therapy is not limited to regular medication use; it is closely related to multidimensional factors such as disease adjustment, physical adjustment, psychological balance, social functioning, and the individual's level of self-efficacy. This study aimed to examine the effect of Roy's Adaptation Model-based education on the adherence of patients with chronic kidney disease or kidney transplantation undergoing immunosuppressive therapy to immunosuppressive therapy, their adaptation to the disease, and their self-efficacy levels.

Material and Methods: This quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest control group design was conducted with 78 chronic kidney disease patients who were scheduled to receive immunosuppressive therapy for the first time between November 2024 and June 2025 at the nephrology and transplantation services of a university hospital. Data were collected using the "Patient Information Form," "Immunosuppressive Drug Adherence Scale," "Chronic Disease Coping Scale," and "General Self-Efficacy Scale."

DEVICE

training booklet

Developed by researchers in line with the Roy Adaptation Model, this educational material was created to support patients with chronic kidney disease or kidney transplantation who are undergoing immunosuppressive therapy for the first time, helping them adapt more effectively to their disease and treatment process. The content of the training booklet includes topics such as what immunosuppressive treatment is, situations to be aware of during the treatment process, precautions to be taken while undergoing immunosuppressive treatment, problems patients may encounter, and recommendations. The booklet is structured in accordance with the four areas of adaptation in the Roy Adaptation Model: physiological, self-concept, role function, and interdependence.
