Little information is available on how families make decisions about living related kidney donation. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to explore the family decision making process in identifying and selecting a living related kidney donor, to identify factors that assist or inhibit the decision making, and to explore issues and concerns raised by families about the experience. The qualitative method of grounded theory was used. Ten recipients, their living related donors, and their family members were interviewed individually and as a group prior to and after the transplant. Four decisions were required of most families. Three decision-making patterns--straightforward, moderately straightforward, and complex were identified as well as the factors that influenced the process.
关于家庭如何做出亲属活体肾捐赠决策的信息很少。因此，本研究的目的是探讨家庭在识别和选择亲属活体肾捐赠者过程中的决策过程，确定有助于或阻碍决策的因素，并探讨家庭对这一经历提出的问题和担忧。采用了扎根理论的定性研究方法。在移植前后，分别对10名受者、他们的亲属活体捐赠者及其家庭成员进行了单独访谈和小组访谈。大多数家庭需要做出四个决策。确定了三种决策模式——直接型、适度直接型和复杂型，以及影响这一过程的因素。
