Abstract:
Conspecific organ transplantation provides the survival for the diseased patients at the later stage. The transplantation-induced emotional disorder, rejection, social and psychological burdens all affect the donor, recipients and their relatives, together with the involved medical staff regarding the physical and mental health. The differences of gender, age, cultural background, economic status, social and family roles, and religion beliefs may result in the varying psychological reactions. Therefore, it is recommended to conduct the psychological intervention for the population at each stage of the organ transplantation, as the transplantation technique increases.
