Symptom Assessment And Management For Adults With CKD In Vietnam
Sponsor: Griffith University
Summary
Adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have many symptoms that lower their quality of life and put a huge burden on the healthcare system. Recently, eHealth solutions have been introduced in chronic kidney disease care, helping with symptom management and improving patient outcomes. While symptom management via electronic health (eHealth) is emerging in other countries, it has not commenced in Vietnam. This study aims to develop and evaluate a remote symptom assessment and management program delivered through a mobile application for adults with CKD living in Vietnam to help them manage their symptoms. This is the first intervention program focusing on symptom assessment and management in Vietnam. By assessing and managing symptoms, adults with CKD can better self-manage their symptoms.

Symptom Assessment and Management Program (SAM-CKD) which is delivered via Smart Kidney mobile app
An intervention program delivered through a mobile app to support symptom assessment and management for adults with CKD. The SAM-CKD program has three components - introduction, symptom tracker and symptom management. A list of 17 common symptoms will be assessed. Users can self-assess symptoms and rate these according to the severity level (overwhelmingly, severely, moderately, slightly, and not at all). The SAM-CKD program will provide symptom management strategies based on symptoms reported by patients. The intervention's duration is 6 weeks.
