Currently, there is no standardized protocol to evaluate psychosocial factors before Tx or predict Tx outcomes for pediatric patients. In 2017, our center implemented a modified version of the Society for Transplant Social Workers Psychosocial Assessment Tool for Potential Organ Transplant Recipients. The objective is to see if this adult-focused tool is beneficial to evaluate psychosocial factors pre-Tx and predict Tx outcomes for pediatric patients.}, number = {IR}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.6083/6t053g68m}, recid = {9213}, address = {2021}, }
