Information-Assisted Intervention for Potential Living Kidney Donors
Sponsor: National Taipei University of Nursing and Health Sciences
Summary
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an information-assisted intervention in enhancing knowledge, decision self-efficacy, and reducing decisional conflict among potential living kidney donors. Using a one-group pretest-posttest design, participants will be recruited from the urology and kidney transplant outpatient clinics of two hospitals in northern Taiwan. After providing informed consent and completing a baseline questionnaire (T0), participants will receive a four-week information-assisted intervention in addition to routine care, with follow-up assessments at 4 weeks (T1) and 8 weeks (T2). Data will be collected using structured questionnaires assessing decisional conflict, decision self-efficacy, knowledge, positive thinking, family resilience, and satisfaction with the intervention.

Information-Assisted Intervention
The intervention content was formulated based on previous Delphi study results and a comprehensive literature review. To facilitate comprehension, the educational materials were presented using illustrations, mind maps, tables, and concise text in an educational manual. Participants may record questions arising during their learning process, which will be discussed and clarified during consultation sessions by members of the transplant team, including physicians, social workers, and transplant coordinators.
