About this study

Randomized clinical trial focusing on the effect of tailored information on Covid-19 for patients with chronic kidney disease stage 5 on health literacy, anxiety and self-perceived health.

Read the detailed description

This single-center randomized open clinical trial in persons with chronic kidney disease stage 5 investigates the effect of information about coronavirus targeted at the study population, using study specific information videos followed by a teach-back method. We measure digital, functional, interactive and critical health literacy, fear of coronavirus and self-perceived health at baseline and end-of-study. Patients are followed from May-July 2021 through February 2022 (study period 7-9 months).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Digital health literacy

    Digital health literacy measured by Electronic Health Literacy Scale (shortened eHEALS, Norman et al 2006), a questionnaire composed of 8 items measuring combined knowledge, comfort, and perceived skills at finding, evaluating, and applying electronic health information to health problems, Likert scale 1 (lowest, worst digital health literacy) - 5 (highest, best digital health literacy), with max score 40.

    Measured: 9 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Health literacy

    Health literacy measured by Health Literacy Questionnaire (shortened HLQ, Osborne et al 2013), a questionnaire composed of 44 items (9 dimensions) measuring reading and writing skills (functional), interactive and critical literacy. Likert scale 1 (lowest, worst health literacy) - 4 (highest, best health literacy) for some items and 1 (lowest, similar) - 5 (highest) for other items with calculations of mean score for each of the 9 dimensions.

    Measured: 9 months

  2. Self-perceived Health

    Self-perceived health measured with the EQ-5D-5L (EuroQol Group 1990), a questionnaire composed of 5 items / dimensions (mobility, autonomy, daily activities, pain, and anxiety and depression), Likert scale 1 (lowest / best health) - 5 (highest / worst health) with max score 25

    Measured: 9 months

  3. Anxiety / concern

    Anxiety / concern measured by the questionnaire Fear of corona scale (Ahorsu et al 2020), Likert scale 1 (lowest, least concern) - 5 (highest, most concern) with max score 35

    Measured: 9 months
