First seen Apr 18, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 14 times

Summary

This study follows about 793 people with chronic kidney disease who previously took part in a program designed to help them talk to doctors and family about kidney transplants. Researchers want to see if the program's effects last over time, including whether patients start transplant evaluations, find living donors, or receive a transplant. The goal is to learn how to make transplants more common and fair for everyone.
