Psychosoziale Evaluation von Patienten mit einer alkohol-assoziierten Lebererkrankung

Eine Lebertransplantation ist im Endstadium alkoholassoziierter Lebererkrankungen die einzige lebensrettende Behandlungsmaßnahme. Vor Aufnahme in die Transplantationswarteliste ist für Patienten mit dieser Diagnose eine psychosoziale Evaluation vorgeschrieben. Der Beitrag beinhaltet Hinweise zum Vorgehen und die relevanten Beurteilungskriterien für eine psychosoziale Evaluation.
