About

This study aims to test the efficacy of a series of just-in-time educational videos on topics related to CKM (CKM-EMPOWER) in improving nephrology providers ability to provide CKM.

Full description

Conservative kidney management (CKM) is an important therapeutic alternative for patients who do not wish to pursue dialysis for their advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). Despite a growing body of evidence and clinical services to support patients who do not wish to pursue dialysis, nephrologists receive very limited training in CKM. This is a randomized trial of nephrology fellows that utilizes surveys to assess their change in knowledge, confidence and practice of providing CKM with receipt of CKM-EMPOWER. The investigators hypothesize that the CKM-EMPOWER will improve nephrology fellows' knowledge and confidence with delivering key elements of CKM. Investigators will recruit 126 nephrology fellows from US fellowship programs and randomize participants in a 1:1 fashion to either receipt of the CKM-EMPOWER or non-receipt. Participants will complete web-based surveys to assess knowledge and confidence with providing CKM between groups.
