Feasibility and Efficacy of Engagement Modules for Renal and Liver Transplant Candidates
This current study aims to evaluate the efficacy of engagement modules in assisting patients
who are candidates for renal and liver transplantation make significant lifestyle

and iOS compatible) has been created to assist in both educating and engaging patients to
develop and maintain healthy lifestyle modifications. Our goal is to create a cost-effective,
smartphone-based platform that serves to not only efficiently educate but to also verify
competence and keep our patients engaged.
