Abstract

Lung transplantation (LTx) provides a viable option for the survival of end-stage lung diseases. Besides survival as a clinical outcome measure, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and psychological distress have become important outcomes in studies investigating the effectiveness of LTx in the short- and long-term.
