NOBREGA, Rafaela Tavares  e  LUCENA, Marineuza Monteiro da Silva. Beyond liver transplant: exploring adherence to treatment. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2011, vol.11, n.3, pp. 965-982. ISSN 1808-4281.

This research aims to comprehend the meaning of adherence to the treatment, attributed by liver transplant patients. The Analysis of Content was the used methodology to analyze the reports of the interviews with patients who were identified as non-adherents by the health team of the Liver Transplant Center of Ceará. The patients expressed that adherence is related to many factors, for example, as the support of the family and the relationship with health professionals, but it is also something that depends on one's "nature". It is possible to note that the way they deal with adherence is the way they find to include the demands of the treatment in their lives. At last, will be discussed strategies that aim the promotion of adhesion among patients.
