Brief Summary:
To describe the beliefs, understanding and experience of immunosuppressant medication adherence in our current transplant patient population through a series of patient focus groups
Detailed Description:
The investigators want to understand more about why some of our kidney transplant patients find it difficult to take their anti-rejection medicines as intended. It is hoped that if the investigators can improve their understanding of why some patients struggle with their anti-rejection medicines, the investigators will be able to find better ways to help our transplant patients and so fewer patients may develop problems with their transplant. This study will collect qualitative data from a series of focus groups with kidney transplant recipients to explore their beliefs, understanding and experience of anti-rejection medication adherence. The focus groups will also explore the support that participants have received to help them with their medication adherence and what support they feel should be available to them and to others in the future to optimise anti-rejection medication adherence in transplant patients. Five focus groups will be undertaken. Each focus group will include six patients and will last for approximately 1.5 hours. All participants will be kidney transplant recipients transplanted and followed up at Imperial College Renal and Transplant Centre.
