In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Educational and lifestyle coaching for Chronic Kidney Disease. Completed, enrolled 125 participants.
Detailed Summary
People reach End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) due to progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD). CKD is associated with increased risks for heart disease and death. The burden of chronic kidney disease is increased among minority populations compare to Caucasians. The Zuni Indians are experiencing an epidemic of chronic kidney disease is due primarily to the high rates of obesity and diabetes. The present study entitled Home-Based Kidney Care is designed to delay / reduce rate of ESRD by early interventions in CKD. Investigators propose to assess the safety and efficacy of conducting a full-scale study to determine if home based care delivered by a collaborative team composed of community health workers and University of New Mexico faculty will decrease the risk for the development and the progression of CKD.
