Trial Outcomes & Findings for Home-Based Kidney Care in Native American's of New Mexico (HBKC) (NCT NCT03179085)

NCT ID: NCT03179085

Last Updated: 2025-04-08

Results Overview

Assesses an individual's knowledge, skill, and confidence for managing one's health and healthcare. PAM total scores have a theoretical range from 0 to 100, with higher scores representing greater patient activation.

Participant Flow

A total of 529 individuals were consented for participation in the study. These participants responded to screening questionnaires which included POC testing, Blood pressure, medical history and physical assessments. From those 529 participants, a total of 286 did not meet inclusion criteria for randomization and 57 declined further participation in the study. Therefore, we randomized 186 participants, 93 to the HBKC care intervention and 93 to the Delay Intervention.

The study enrolled males and females who displayed evidence of diabetic chronic kidney disease and who: were age 21 to 80 years; had a negative pregnancy test in women of child-bearing potential; were diagnosed diabetics or HbA1c \>7; had BMI \>27 kg/m2, and had UACR \>=30 mg/g. Exclusion criteria: life expectancy \< 1 year; absence of reliable birth control in women of child-bearing potential; malignancy except non-melanoma skin cancer; blind; and unwilling or unable to give informed consent.

Usual Care / Delayed Intervention
Participants randomized to the control group will receive usual care by their provider for 12 months. They will also attend one group class taught by CHRs in which they will learn basic information about diabetes prevention. DI participants will receive publicly-available literature that reinforces the information given in class, and they will have no other contact with study staff aside from during study data collection visits at baseline and 12 months. After 12 months of usual care, patients will enter into the delayed intervention where they will complete 12 months of Home-Based Kidney Care (HBKC). Home-Based Kidney Care: All subjects randomized to the HBKC arm will be visited by a community health representative in their home at least every two weeks for the duration of the 12 month intervention. Each visit will last 30 minutes to one hour and cover materials like, (1) Kidney 101, (2) weight management, (3) exercise, (4) healthy eating, (5) medication management, (6) coping with stress, (7) risk factor management (i.e.- blood pressure, hyperlipidemia), (8) alcohol and substance abuse, (9) smoking cessation, and related health concerns.
Home-Based Kidney Care Intervention
All subjects randomized to the HBKC arm will be visited by a CHR in their home at least every two weeks for the duration of the 12 month intervention. Each visit will last 30 minutes to one hour and participant preference will be incorporated into the HBKC intervention arm by allowing participants to prioritize the order in which curriculum topic areas will be emphasized by the CHRs. Topics from currently available NIDDK and IHS kidney education materials will include: (1) Kidney 101, (2) weight management, (3) exercise, (4) healthy eating, (5) medication management, (6) coping with stress, (7) risk factor management (i.e.- blood pressure, hyperlipidemia), (8) alcohol and substance abuse, (9) smoking cessation, and related health concerns.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 6 and 12 months

Population: Missing PAM scores data and the number differ for each time point. Participants were invited to participate at each time point regardless of participation in other study periods. We note that this study took place during COVID 19 pandemic.

Assesses an individual's knowledge, skill, and confidence for managing one's health and healthcare. PAM total scores have a theoretical range from 0 to 100, with higher scores representing greater patient activation.

Measure
Usual Care / Delayed Intervention
n=73 Participants
Participants randomized to the control group will receive usual care by their provider for 12 months. They will also attend one group class taught by CHRs in which they will learn basic information about diabetes prevention. DI participants will receive publicly-available literature that reinforces the information given in class, and they will have no other contact with study staff aside from during study data collection visits at baseline and 12 months. After 12 months of usual care, patients will enter into the delayed intervention where they will complete 12 months of Home-Based Kidney Care (HBKC). Home-Based Kidney Care: All subjects randomized to the HBKC arm will be visited by a community health representative in their home at least every two weeks for the duration of the 12 month intervention. Each visit will last 30 minutes to one hour and cover materials like, (1) Kidney 101, (2) weight management, (3) exercise, (4) healthy eating, (5) medication management, (6) coping with stress, (7) risk factor management (i.e.- blood pressure, hyperlipidemia), (8) alcohol and substance abuse, (9) smoking cessation, and related health concerns.
Home-Based Kidney Care Intervention
n=78 Participants
All subjects randomized to the HBKC arm will be visited by a CHR in their home at least every two weeks for the duration of the 12 month intervention. Each visit will last 30 minutes to one hour and participant preference will be incorporated into the HBKC intervention arm by allowing participants to prioritize the order in which curriculum topic areas will be emphasized by the CHRs. Topics from currently available NIDDK and IHS kidney education materials will include: (1) Kidney 101, (2) weight management, (3) exercise, (4) healthy eating, (5) medication management, (6) coping with stress, (7) risk factor management (i.e.- blood pressure, hyperlipidemia), (8) alcohol and substance abuse, (9) smoking cessation, and related health concerns.
