Trial summary

Home dialysis modalities, including peritoneal dialysis (PD) and home hemodialysis (HHD), represent alternatives to conventional in-center hemodialysis (HD) that for some patients may be better aligned with preferences regarding the integration of dialysis treatments into their lives.

About this study

Home dialysis modalities, including peritoneal dialysis (PD) and home hemodialysis (HHD), represent alternatives to conventional in-center hemodialysis (HD) that for some patients may be better aligned with preferences regarding the integration of dialysis treatments into their lives. Assessment of patient experience and satisfaction with care among individuals undergoing maintenance dialysis in the United States is a national health care priority and mandated by Congress. While validated instruments (ICH CAHPS) are in use to assess patient experience with in-center HD, currently no validated instruments are available to measure patient-reported experience in home dialysis.

This Home Patient Experience Survey Validation Study is an in-house research study conducted in partnership with the University of Washington.

Read the detailed description

Assessment of patient experience and satisfaction with care among individuals undergoing maintenance dialysis in the United States is a national health care priority and mandated by Congress. No validated instruments are available to measure the patient-reported experience of care in-home dialysis patients. Such tools are needed as more patients are expected to choose home dialysis therapies in the future. This study aims to validate a home patient experience survey instrument.

This is a cross-sectional validation to determine the measurement properties of a new home dialysis patient experience survey instrument. Satellite Healthcare home dialysis patients will be approached by mail or by phone to complete the survey.

The aim of this study is to perform field testing for this newly developed instrument for the purposes of instrument validation and to determine survey instrument measurement properties. This will include the evaluation of any multi-item scales as well as an overall score.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Mail Survey ParticipantsApproximately 1200 home patients will receive mail surveys. Of these, one thousand and twenty (1,020) patients will be asked to complete the survey once. One hundred and eighty (180) patients will be asked to complete the survey twice.
Receives: Other: Survey using "Your Home Dialysis Care Experience" tool.
Telephone Survey ParticipantsThree hundred (300) home patients will be surveyed by phone. Of those, one hundred and twenty will be asked to complete the survey once. One hundred and eighty patients will be asked to complete the phone surveys on two separate occasions.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evaluation of the measurement model

    The evaluation will encompass the survey burden, presence of a floor or ceiling effect for any item, test-retest reliability, development of multi-item subscales, internal consistency and reliability, center level reliability of the items and composites, and construct validity.

    Measured: through survey completion, an average of 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Survey response rate

    Percent (%) of participants contacted who complete survey instrument

    Measured: through survey completion, an average of 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Home Dialysis and End Stage Renal Disease, run by Satellite Healthcare at 32 sites in United States.

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 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Dec 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 32 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of the measurement model (time frame: through survey completion, an average of 6 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Dec 2021.
