This study is looking to improve the safety of patients with chronic kidney disease via education provided on a mobile tablet. This study will additionally examine if electronic tools, such as mobile tablets, can help.
Individuals with CKD are at risk for adverse safety events, yet little is known regarding the utility of health information technology (IT) educational tools to reduce these events. The results of this project will be invaluable in gaining a better understanding of the limitations and potential for use of a patient-centered mHealth patient safety educational intervention in high-risk individuals with CKD.
The study will evaluate the perceived eHealth literacy of patients with CKD and its relation to medication errors in the CRIC cohort. The hypothesis is that a novel mHealth-based patient safety curriculum designed to address a wide-range of e-literacy will be effective in attenuating the identified Digital Divide adversely affecting many CKD patients, and will reduce adverse safety events common in this population.
Study Aims:
Examine the association between surveyed perceived e-literacy and medication errors in individuals with CKD
Hypothesis 1: Medication error rates will be higher among CRIC participants with low eHealth literacy.
Assess the acceptance and feasibility of a novel mHealth-based patient safety curriculum to improve patient safety risk knowledge among individuals with CKD and determine its efficacy in increasing patient safety risk awareness.
Hypothesis 2a: A low literacy mHealth patient safety curriculum will improve patient safety risk awareness among high risk individuals with CKD.
Hypothesis 2b: Medication error rates will be higher among CRIC participants with low patient safety risk awareness.

| Survey and mHealth Tool | Other | A survey has been designed that evaluates CRIC participants' computer and mobile phone usage, and perceived e-health literacy. There is also a mobile health-based (mHealth) patient safety educational curriculum that evaluates CRIC participants' knowledge of patient safety hazards in CKD. The mHealth patient safety curriculum tool is also known as eCRIC. |

| mHealth Tool | Other | The curriculum in the mHealth tool was derived in consultation with patient safety, informatics and adult educational curricula experts, and is comprised of clinical vignettes describing common patient safety themes in CKD and includes a pre- and post-test knowledge assessment. Topics of emphasis included NSAID risk awareness, hypoglycemia awareness, avoidance of volume depletion when ill ("Sick Day Protocol") and avoidance of contrast-induced nephropathy. |
