What is being measured

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

  1. Modified Kidney Knowledge Survey (mKIKS)

    Assesses participants' objective knowledge about AKI causes, risk factors, and management. The minimum score is 0, maximum score is 15, higher scores indicate greater knowledge.

    Measured: 14-days after last study contact

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Brief health literacy screen

    A 4-item tool to assess health literacy. Minimum score of 0, maximum score 20, higher scores indicate higher health literacy

    Measured: 30-days post hospitalization

  2. Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Global Health 10

    Based on the provided responses, an overall summary score, and two subset scores - Global health physical and Global health mental can be calculated. Raw summed score are converted into T-scores. Higher scores indicate better health.

    Measured: 30-days post hospitalization
