Summary

Aim: By application of wearable devices and health management platform to build self-management model in CKD patients and analyze the cost of healthcare.

Material and Methods: The investigators plan to recruit 60 CKD patients as trial subjects. The intervention group is composed of 30 participants, and the control group 30 participants. The intervention group received intervention with wearable devices and health management platform for 90 days. Patients record diet diary by a smartphone application, and their exercise-related data are collected by wearable devices. Then, all the collected information will be upload to health management platform. The investigators also create a LINE group to encourage exercise in the experimental group. The investigators compare the scores of self-management sheet and physical and laboratory examinations before and after the intervention. The investigators also analyze the cost of healthcare within 180 days.

Conditions

  • Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 1
  • Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 2
  • Chronic Kidney Disease stage3
  • Chronic Kidney Disease stage4

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Mobile health application and social media

The intervention involved reminding the intervention group to upload their dietary diary every day. The researchers were trained by a dietitian and provided suggestions about diet and exercise to the intervention group. "LINE " is a mobile app operated by LINE Corporation. All users can use texts, images, video, and audio for contact at any time. A LINE group was created to deliver medical knowledge of diet and exercise. Each of the messages were guided by a diet manual for kidney disease (edited by Department of Dietetics, National Taiwan University Hospital Yunlin Branch). The intervention group also asked questions about CKD management, and a teleconsultation of health information was provided. A daily target of 7,500 steps was set and used to emphasize the correct concepts about exercise. Participants were inspired in the intervention group if someone achieved the target number of steps.
