Actual (reported)More than 80% of individuals in the U.S. start maintenance hemodialysis (HD) with a central venous catheter, despite substantial evidence that starting HD with an arteriovenous (AV) access improves quality of life, lowers mortality, and decreases healthcare costs. Health system- and patient-level barriers contribute to low rates of AV access creation prior to HD initiation. Evidence-based, pre-dialysis interventions to improve these low rates and associated clinical outcomes are lacking. A Vascular Access Navigation and Education Quality Improvement Program will be implemented in the Geisinger Danville, PA chronic kidney disease clinic. Individuals who choose to participate in a research sub-study of the program will complete questionnaires to assess their vascular access care knowledge and confidence before and after participation in the quality improvement program.

Actual (reported)Mean Scores of a Questionnaire Evaluating Patient Confidence in Navigating Vascular Access Care Pre- to Post-program Implementation
Patient confidence in ability to navigate the vascular access creation process. Measured using 3 team-developed confidence questions (score range: 1-10). Higher scores reflect higher confidence in navigating vascular access care.
Pre- and post-intervention, a total of up to 7 months
Mean Scores of a Questionnaire Evaluating Patient Confidence in Self-managing Kidney Disease Pre- to Post-program Implementation
Patient confidence in ability to self-manage kidney disease. Measured using a modified version of the 8-item Perceived Kidney Disease Self-Management Scale (score range: 8-40). Higher scores reflect higher confidence in self-management of patient's kidney disease.
Pre- and post-intervention, a total of up to 7 months
All participants enrolled in the study who are involved in the Vascular Access Navigation and Education Quality Improvement Program.
A Vascular Access Navigation and Education Quality Improvement Program implemented in the Geisinger Danville, PA chronic kidney disease clinic. Participants complete questionnaires to assess their vascular access care knowledge and confidence before and after the implementation of the quality improvement program.

Mean Scores of a Questionnaire Evaluating Patient Vascular Access Knowledge Pre- to Post-program Implementation
Patient vascular access care knowledge. Measured using 8 team-developed knowledge questions (score range: 0-10). Higher scores reflect higher knowledge of vascular access.
Pre- and post-intervention, a total of up to 7 months
Mean Scores of a Questionnaire Evaluating Provider Confidence Supporting Patients Through the Vascular Access Care Process Pre- to Post-program Implementation
Provider confidence in ability to help patients navigate the vascular access creation process. Measured using 11 team-developed confidence questions (score range: 1-10). Higher scores reflect higher confidence supporting patients through the vascular access care process.
Pre- and post-intervention, a total of up to 7 months
