Previous research suggests that effective lifestyle interventions for solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients must be tailored to address the unique life circumstances of this population. As few studies have investigated this design consideration, this study aimed to explore the perspectives and experiences of SOT recipients after completing a Group Lifestyle Balance™ [GLB]-based intervention incorporating either (a) standard population-based nutrition guidance or (b) nutrigenomics-based nutrition guidance. All active participants in the Nutrigenomics, Overweight/Obesity, and Weight Management-Transplant (NOW-Tx) pilot study were invited to participate. Data were collected through focus groups and individual interviews. Ninety-five percent (n = 18) of the NOW-Tx pilot study participants enrolled in the current study: 15 participated in 3 focus groups; 3 were interviewed individually. Three themes were common to both intervention groups: (1) the post-transplant experience; (2) beneficial program components; (3) suggestions for improvement. A unique theme was identified for the nutrigenomics-based intervention, comprising the sub-themes of intervention-specific advantages, challenges, and problem-solving. The readily available and adaptable GLB curriculum demonstrated both feasibility and acceptability and was aligned with participants’ needs and existing health self-management skills. The addition of nutrigenomics-based guidance to the GLB curriculum may enhance motivation for behaviour change in this patient population. |
