This study will use an adapted education worksheet to support patient-centered chronic kidney
disease (CKD) communication, shared decision making, and patient engagement and will test its
impact on intermediate patient modifiable characteristics in a primary care practice with
patients who have pre-dialysis CKD.

The study team will enroll up to 100 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) from a
primary care clinic to start. Patients will receive the intervention, which consists of the
physicians using the education worksheet during appointments with patients, and patients and
providers will complete surveys about its use and to measure impact on knowledge and other
areas related to patient outcomes.

Once initial user testing is complete, the study team plans to submit an amendment to expand
on this trial and incorporate comparison sites. This will be submitted and receive IRB
approval prior to participant involvement.

Amendment on 12/2018: We have updated the enrollment numbers to include the control group.

The study hypothesis is that patients who receive the intervention will have greater
knowledge about their CKD diagnosis, higher satisfaction with provider communication, and
higher scores related to managing CKD to keep themselves healthy compared to control
populations.
