Brief summary
The purpose of the present study is to investigate how the health of donors in living donor lung transplantation will change after transplant operations.
Detailed description
In Japan, living donor lung transplantation has been established as an alternative therapy for brain-dead lung transplantation, as the number of organs for transplantation is absolutely short. However, how patient reported measurements including health status, dyspnea, psychological status and sleep would change after lung transplantation has not been well evaluated. Therefore, in the present study, we aim (1) to compare them before and after transplant operations and (2) to analyze how they will change for 5 years.
