Interventions
Patient and Community Stakeholder Interviews
Thirty in-depth face-to-face patient interviews, and ten in-depth structured stakeholder interviews will be conducted to explore and identify facilitators and barriers to self-care in African American adults with DKD experiencing HRSN.
Cross-sectional Study Participants
Three hundred African American adults with DKD experiencing HRSN will be recruited to participate in a cross-sectional study. All participants will complete a one-time survey, and blood samples and blood pressure readings will be obtained to assess clinical outcomes.
Focus Groups and Intervention Mapping
A subsample of patient interview/cross-sectional study participants will be invited back to participate in four focus groups (five participants/group) to review components of the intervention, give feedback on appropriateness, feasibility, acceptability, and likelihood of having an impact based on their lived experiences.
