Efficacy of the ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE healthcare transition syllabus among pre- and posttransplant adolescents in Cali, Colombia.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the "ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE" syllabus (Spanish version) and its effects on HCT readiness in young patients with kidney failure, including renal transplants.

Methods
