Abstract
hat help in minimizing postoperative complications and make the recovery easier. Aim: To assess
the effect of teaching guidelines on patient knowledge post-LT after hospital discharge. Subjects
and method: Design: A quasi-experimental research design was used. Setting: The study was
conducted at Gastrointestinal Surgery Center and Liver Transplantation at Mansoura University
Hospital. Subjects: A convenient sample of 60 patients post-liver transplantation was involved in
the study from the previously mentioned setting. Tools for data collection: It included a
structured interviewing questionnaire which consisted of two parts; (1) demographic data and (2)
patients’ knowledge regarding post-liver transplantation after hospital discharge. Results: There
was a statistically significant difference regarding the level of knowledge pre and post-teaching
guidelines about liver transplantation. There were significant associations between patients’
knowledge regarding liver transplantation and their demographic characteristics. Conclusion: There
was a satisfactory level of knowledge post teaching guidelines among LT patients. Teaching
guidelines for patients post LT proved positive changes and improvements in their knowledge
regarding LT. Recommendations: Teaching guidelines about liver transplantation should be
provided for patients undergoing liver transplantation from hospital admission until discharge.
