NCT05715580

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to analyse the impact of an informative nursing intervention in the adherence to drug treatment and a healthy lifestyle in kidney transplant patients and the effect of poor adherence on clinical predictors of poor kidney function. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

  • Is it possible improve the drug adherence of kidney recipients with a nursing information intervention?
  • Is it possible improve the healthy lifestyle adherence of kidney recipients with a nursing information intervention? Participants will be divided into two groups: Intervention group: in which a health education action will be carried out and Control group in which the usual clinical practice will be maintained.

Study Arms (2)

Intervention group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The nursing intervention will consist of providing information to the patient with a KT about the importance of following the prescribed therapeutic regimen, at the same time the information they may have about healthy lifestyle habits will be expanded, with special emphasis on those areas in which there has been detected, through the administered questionnaires, a lack of adherence.

Other: Nursing information with a Protocol

Control group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

The control group will be informed of the same aspects following the usual clinical practice, which consists of providing the information in the immediate post-transplant period, and resolving any doubts that the patient may have during the subsequent time.

Other: Usual clinical practice

Interventions

The nursing intervention will consist of providing information to the patient with a kidney transplant. To do this, a Committee of experts, made up of the 6 nurses from the kidney transplant Consultations of the Community of Madrid (Spain), will carry out an Information Protocol for adults with a kidney transplant, which will cover the healthy lifestyle habits described by the bibliography

Intervention group

Nursing information following the usual clinical practice
