Interventions
The CSTEX condition has two integrated components: the CST component will systematically train patients in the use of coping skills for stress reduction and promote key transplant-specific health behaviors. The exercise component of the intervention will progressively increase participants exercise and promote daily physical activity through motivational interviewing strategies.
The SOC-ED condition provides support and enhanced post-transplant education. Participants will be given detailed educational information about post-transplant care, the importance of medication adherence, and maintenance of physical activity.
