About this study

This study is being implemented for 3 aims. The first has been to conduct a systematic literatures review on CKD intervention models and their effectiveness. Findings have been adopted in our intervention program. The second purpose is to establish a practical management model or an intervention model for CKD patients and high risk population with the 18-month of follow-up.In the third year, we will use social perspective point to evaluate the costs and the benefits of intervention.

Read the detailed description

The object of the study is by screening for adults (20 years) with chronic kidney disease (CKD stage 1-3a) and high-risk groups. They were randomly assigned into experimental groups (self management and peer-assisted management) and control group (general management). All participants received a general education with the knowledge on care for early chronic kidney disease recently establishes by the National Health Insurance system. We then used the cross-theoretical model to assess the intervention among the three groups.

We collected information on baseline and follow-up data on biochemical and physiological check-ups, health promotion behavior, dietary intake status, self-efficacy and cost etc. Information on behavior changes, including smoking, chewing betel nut, medication, exercise and diet, was also collected and assessed. Participants in the self-management group are expected to emphasize on self-managed interventions, including self-monitoring and records keeping, self-education with digital video disc (DVD) courses. We negotiated their behavior change set goals for them etc. The peer-assisted management group received similar program for 3 months, the peer oriented group activities followed, including group discussions to share experience and sports map etc. The effectiveness assessments have been set for the baseline, 3rd, 6th, 12th and 18th months. With one year of intervention period, the 3 groups will be assessed at the 18th months of follow-up next year.

In the third year, we will use social perspective point to evaluate the costs and benefits of intervention. We suppose that a 100,000 people to screen out cases of chronic kidney disease (CKD stage 1-3a) and high-risk groups, and we will compare the cost-effectiveness analysis between the experimental group with accept the intervention for 12 months to the control groups without receiving extra intervention.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing general management, self-management and peer-assisted management in people with Chronic Kidney Diseases and Chronic Kidney Insufficiency, run by China Medical University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from Baseline in Renal function at 18 months (time frame: the baseline, 3rd, 6th, 12th and 18th months.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
