Characterization of the stanford integrated psychosocial assessment for transplant for heart, liver, and kidney transplant candidates in Japan.

There were notable differences in the total SIPAT-J and subscale scores among the liver, heart, and kidney recipient candidates. Each organ was associated with specific psychosocial issues that should be addressed before transplantation. Interventions such as information provision and patient education based on SIPAT assessment results for each organ may improve recipient post-transplant outcomes.
