Interactive Computer-adaptive Chronic Kidney Disease Education Program
Sponsored by University of Chicago
About this study
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to evaluate a culturally tailored computerized education program in hospitalized African-American patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). The main question it aims to answer are: does computerized adaptive education (CAE) increase patients' knowledge about CKD self-care and renal replacement therapy (RRT) options compared to usual care (UC) and will CAE will be increase patients' intent to participate in CKD self-care and RRT preparation compared to UC
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to evaluate a culturally tailored adaptive computerized education program in hospitalized African-American patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). The investigator's first hypothesis is that computerized adaptive education (CAE) will be more effective than standard of care in improving knowledge about self-care for advanced CKD and renal replacement therapy (RRT) options (Primary Outcome). The primary outcome is knowledge about CKD and knowledge about RRT. The study team will measure this using the Kidney Disease Knowledge Survey (KiKs). The investigator's second hypothesis is that CAE will increase patients' intent to participate in CKD self-care (to take diabetes and/or hypertension meds, see a nephrologist, and make additional lifest…
