Summary
This study tests whether giving organ transplant patients a mobile app or a teaching booklet helps them better manage their health after surgery. Researchers will measure quality of life, how well patients take their anti-rejection medications, and symptom control. About 108 liver or kidney transplant recipients will be assigned to one of three groups: standard care, standard care plus a booklet, or standard care plus a mobile app.
