Description

<p>【Objective】 The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the type of information the parents received from high school students and the parents’ interest in organ transplants and the presence of family dialogue.</p><p>【Design】 Cross-sectional study.</p><p>【Methods】 The transplant medical education was carried out at three Ibaraki prefectural high schools, and the lecturer urged the students who attended to tell their parents what they learned in the class. We conducted a cross-sectional survey of high school parents by anonymous self-administered questionnaires. Question items were 10 items concerning organ transplantation and donation. The analysis was performed by chi-square test.</p><p>【Results】 Questionnaires were distributed to 464 persons, and 255 valid responses were received. When the subjects answered that they read the handouts, the percentage that answered that they interacted with family for the first time was high. When the subjects answered that they heard the story from the child, the percentage that answered that they interacted with family for the first time was high. When the respondents answered that they read the handouts, a high percentage answered that they were interested before. It was not related to whether the subjects heard from the children and their interest in organ transplantation.</p><p>【Conclusion】 It was suggested that parents may receive interest in organ transplantation by receiving information on organ transplantation from children. It was suggested that parents who are not interested in organ transplants cannot receive information on organ transplants simply through utterances and handouts from their children.</p>
