A Coaching Program to Improve Dietary Intake of Patients with CKD: ENTICE-CKD.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objectives

The dietary self-management of CKD is challenging. Telehealth interventions may provide an effective delivery method to facilitate sustained dietary change.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

This pilot, randomized, controlled trial evaluated secondary and exploratory outcomes after a dietitian-led telehealth coaching intervention to improve diet quality in people with stage 3-4 CKD. The intervention group received phone calls every 2 weeks for 3 months (with concurrent, tailored text messages for 3 months), followed by 3 months of tailored text messages without telephone coaching, to encourage a diet consistent with CKD guidelines. The control group received usual care for 3 months, followed by nontailored, educational text messages for 3 months.

Results

Eighty participants (64% male), aged 62±12 years, were randomized to the intervention or control group. Telehealth coaching was safe, with no adverse events or changes to serum biochemistry at any time point. At 3 months, the telehealth intervention, compared with the control, had no detectable effect on overall diet quality on the Alternative Health Eating Index (3.2 points, 95% confidence interval, -1.3 to 7.7), nor at 6 months (0.5 points, 95% confidence interval, -4.6 to 5.5). There was no change in clinic BP at any time point in any group. There were significant improvements in several exploratory diet and clinical outcomes, including core food group consumption, vegetable servings, fiber intake, and body weight.

Conclusions

Telehealth coaching was safe, but appeared to have no effect on the Alternative Healthy Eating Index or clinic BP. There were clinically significant changes in several exploratory diet and clinical outcomes, which require further investigation.

Project description:The recent guidelines on nutritional management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) advise a reduction in protein intake as early as CKD stage 3, regardless of age, to slow kidney function impairment. However, since elderly patients are usually considered as having a spontaneously reduced protein intake, nutritional interventions to reduce protein intake are often considered futile. This study aimed to assess the baseline protein intake of elderly CKD patients referred for nephrology care, and explore the need for dietary evaluations, focusing on the current recommendations for protein restriction in CKD. This is an observational study of CKD patients followed in the unit dedicated to advanced CKD patients in Le Mans, France. Patients with stages 3 to 5 not on dialysis were included. All patients were evaluated by an expert dietician to assess their baseline protein intake, whenever possible on the basis of a 7-days diet journal; when this was not available, dietary recall or analysis of delivered meals was employed. Demographic characteristics, underlying kidney disease, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS), Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) and clinical and laboratory data were recorded. Between 15 November 2017 and 31 December 2020, 436 patients were evaluated in the unit. Their age distribution was as follows: "young": <60 (n = 62), "young-old": 60-69 (n = 74), "old": 70-79 (n = 108), "old-old": 80-89 (n = 140) and "oldest-old": ≥90 (n = 54). The prevalence of vascular nephropathies was higher in patients older than 70 years compared to younger ones, as did CCI and MIS (p < 0.001). Moderate nutritional impairment (SGA: B) was higher in elderly patients, reaching 53.7% at ≥90, while less than 3% of patients in the overall cohort were classified as SGA C (p < 0.001). The median protein intake was higher than the recommended one of 0.8 g/kg/day in all age groups; it was 1.2 g/kg/day in younger patients and 1.0 thereafter (p < 0.001). Patient survival depended significantly on age (p < 0.001) but not on baseline protein intake (p = 0.63), and younger patients were more likely to start dialysis during follow-up (p < 0.001). Over half of the patients, including the old-old and oldest-old, were still on follow-up two years after referral and it was found that survival was only significantly associated with age and comorbidity and was not affected by baseline protein intake. Our study shows that most elderly patients, including old-old and extremely old CKD patients, are spontaneously on diets whose protein content is higher than recommended, and indicates there is a need for nutritional care for this population.

Project description:PurposeTo understand patients' qualitative experiences with the Support, Educate, Empower (SEE) personalized glaucoma coaching program, provide a richer understanding of the components of the intervention that were useful in eliciting behavior change, and understand how to improve the SEE Program.DesignA concurrent mixed-methods process analysis.ParticipantsThirty-nine patients with a diagnosis of any kind of glaucoma or ocular hypertension who were aged ≥40 years, were taking ≥1 glaucoma medication, spoke English, self-administered their eye drops, and had poor glaucoma medication adherence (defined as taking ≤80% of prescribed medication doses assessed via electronic medication adherence monitors) who completed the 7-month SEE Program.MethodsAll participants who completed the study were interviewed in-person using a semistructured interview guide after the intervention. Coders conducted qualitative analysis of transcribed interviews using Grounded Theory. Participants were then stratified into groups based on change in adherence, and thematic differences between groups were examined.Main outcome measuresThemes that emerged from interviews categorized by the number of participants who expressed a theme and the number of representative citations.ResultsParticipants expressed positive views toward the program overall (95%, n = 37/39). They perceived program components as working together to improve their medication adherence. Interactions with the glaucoma coach (38 participants, 184 citations), motivation to aid personal change (38 participants, 157 citations), personalized glaucoma education (38 participants, 149 citations), electronic reminders, and hearing their adherence score (37 participants, 90 citations) were most commonly cited by participants as helpful program elements contributing to improved adherence. Patients expressed a desire for personalized education to be a standard part of glaucoma care. Participants who demonstrated more improvement in adherence had a more trusting attitude toward the adherence score and a greater magnitude of perceived personal need to improve adherence.ConclusionsParticipants reported a highly positive response to the in-person glaucoma education and motivational interviewing intervention used in conjunction with automated adherence reminders.

Project description:ImportanceIn observational studies, increased water intake is associated with better kidney function.ObjectiveTo determine the effect of coaching to increase water intake on kidney function in adults with chronic kidney disease.Design, setting, and participantsThe CKD WIT (Chronic Kidney Disease Water Intake Trial) randomized clinical trial was conducted in 9 centers in Ontario, Canada, from 2013 until 2017 (last day of follow-up, May 25, 2017). Patients had stage 3 chronic kidney disease (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] 30-60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and microalbuminuria or macroalbuminuria) and a 24-hour urine volume of less than 3.0 L.InterventionsPatients in the hydration group (n = 316) were coached to drink more water, and those in the control group (n = 315) were coached to maintain usual intake.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was change in kidney function (eGFR from baseline to 12 months). Secondary outcomes included 1-year change in plasma copeptin concentration, creatinine clearance, 24-hour urine albumin, and patient-reported overall quality of health (0 [worst possible] to 10 [best possible]).ResultsOf 631 randomized patients (mean age, 65.0 years; men, 63.4%; mean eGFR, 43 mL/min/1.73 m2; median urine albumin, 123 mg/d), 12 died (hydration group [n = 5]; control group [n = 7]). Among 590 survivors with 1-year follow-up measurements (95% of 619), the mean change in 24-hour urine volume was 0.6 L per day higher in the hydration group (95% CI, 0.5 to 0.7; P < .001). The mean change in eGFR was -2.2 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the hydration group and -1.9 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the control group (adjusted between-group difference, -0.3 mL/min/1.73 m2 [95% CI, -1.8 to 1.2; P = .74]). The mean between-group differences (hydration vs control) in secondary outcomes were as follows: plasma copeptin, -2.2 pmol/L (95% CI, -3.9 to -0.5; P = .01); creatinine clearance, 3.6 mL/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI, 0.8 to 6.4; P = .01); urine albumin, 7 mg per day (95% CI, -4 to 51; P = .11); and quality of health, 0.2 points (95% CI, -0.3 to 0.3; P = .22).Conclusions and relevanceAmong adults with chronic kidney disease, coaching to increase water intake compared with coaching to maintain the same water intake did not significantly slow the decline in kidney function after 1 year. However, the study may have been underpowered to detect a clinically important difference.Trial registrationclinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01766687.
