Résumé
In our study, we aimed to investigate the effect of immunosuppressive therapy after liver transplantation on activities of daily living and fear of death during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study was conducted as a cross-sectional study with the participation of 213 liver transplant patients hospitalized in the liver transplant center of a university hospital. The data analysis was performed with IBM SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) Statistics 25. Katz's Activities of Daily Living (ADL) were semi-independent and the total score was 11.07 ± 1.59, and the Death Attitude Profile-Revised (DAP-R) total score was 152.23 ± 5.34. It was determined that the DAP-R score was around 150 points in the minimum and maximum score ranges of Katz ADL after liver transplantation. High fear of death threatens resilience and can make patients feel lonely, helpless, sad, abandoned and stressed. Clinicians should spend more time with their patients.

BACKGROUND
In our study, we aimed to investigate the effect of immunosuppressive therapy after liver transplantation on activities of daily living and fear of death during the COVID-19 pandemic.
METHODS
This study was conducted as a cross-sectional study with the participation of 213 liver transplant patients hospitalized in the liver transplant center of a university hospital. The data analysis was performed with IBM SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) Statistics 25.
RESULTS
Katz's Activities of Daily Living (ADL) were semi-independent and the total score was 11.07 ± 1.59, and the Death Attitude Profile-Revised (DAP-R) total score was 152.23 ± 5.34. It was determined that the DAP-R score was around 150 points in the minimum and maximum score ranges of Katz ADL after liver transplantation.
CONCLUSIONS
High fear of death threatens resilience and can make patients feel lonely, helpless, sad, abandoned and stressed. Clinicians should spend more time with their patients.
