Incudes bibliographical references (leaves 104-114). The non-compliance to a strict medicine regimen is a significant problem in transplant patients across the world, and we suspect also in South Africa. Despite the magnitude of the problem and the potentially life-threatening consequences of non-compliance, no research has focused on the South African liver transplant population. The following influencing factors on non-compliance were selected to be explored further in the South African context: beliefs about medicine; perceptions about one's condition; the effect of transplantation; and family dynamics and finances. The aims of the present study are to explore the possible relationships between patients' beliefs about their illness; beliefs about their medicine; feelings of guilt regarding the donor; feelings of responsibility to the transplant team and donor's family; low attendance records for clinics; family functioning and compliance. 2015-01-10T06:52:13Z 2015-01-10T06:52:13Z 2008 Master Thesis Masters MSocSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11902 eng application/pdf Department of Psychology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
