First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study compares three ways to help people with advanced chronic kidney disease prepare for hemodialysis vascular access. 360 participants will either get a video and brochure, the same materials plus coaching sessions, or usual care. The goal is to see which approach helps more patients actually get the surgery needed for dialysis access.
