Person-centred care in chronic kidney disease: The CKD-SMS study
|
Kathryn Havas Thesis (PDF 55MB) |
Description
Chronic kidney disease affects 10% of Australians. This thesis reports a three-phase project involving development, implementation, and evaluation of a novel intervention, the Chronic Kidney Disease Self-Management Support program (CKD-SMS), designed to support people with early stages of this disease. After receiving the intervention, participants displayed significant improvements in multiple clinical outcomes and reported a high level of satisfaction with the program. This study has implications for supporting people with CKD in general practice and indicates that, by tailoring support to individual needs, positive health outcomes which may help to slow disease progression can be achieved.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
