ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship among unmet care needs, social support, and anxiety in patients with lung transplantation. We conducted a cross-sectional study; 173 lung transplant patients who met the inclusion criteria completed questionnaires including the Organ Transplant Recipient Care Needs Scale, the Perceived Social Support Scale, and the Anxiety Self-Rating Inventory. Pearson's correlations and multiple linear regression analyses were used to test the relationship between the selected variables. The results showed a moderate level of unmet care needs at home for lung transplant patients. Education level, transplant-related complications, perceived social support, and anxiety were significantly correlated with unmet care needs of lung transplant patients at home (p < .05), explaining 23.8% of the total variance for unmet care needs. Further research is required to explore interventions to reduce the level of unmet care needs of lung transplant patients.
