About this book
This book addresses the challenges clinicians face when working with patients facing complicated medical diagnosis for which transplantation is considered.
Written by experts in transplant psychiatry, each chapter approaches a common psychiatric challenge faced by transplant candidates and recipients. Chapters meticulously share clinical expertise that provides a framework for future discussions without neglecting the fact that each transplant patient is unique in the complexity of their medical diagnosis.
Additionally, the book examines complex issues including transplant-related posttraumatic stress disorder, post-transplant cognitive impairment, the collaboration between mental health and transplant clinicians, substance use and a wide range of other complicated topics.
Transplant Psychiatry is an excellent case-based guide to mental healthcare delivery for all clinicians who may workwith transplant patients, including psychiatrists, psychologists and mental health professionals, transplant surgeons, internal medicine specialists, hematologists, transplant social workers and transplant coordinators.
