Summary

Decision aids are highly recommended for decisions when there is no "right" treatment choice. The goal is to help patients choose a treatment that is consistent with their preferences and to minimize decisional conflict and regret. A case where there is no "right" treatment concerns the decision to undergo dialysis or supportive care (i.e., conservative management) for elderly (aged ≥70) patients with end-stage kidney disease. The investigators propose to develop an interactive web-based decision aid and test its effectiveness via a pre-post study design. This research aims to reduce decisional conflict for elderly ESKD patients and caregivers.

Conditions

  • End-Stage Kidney Disease

Interventions

OTHER

myKIDNEY decision aid

Patients and caregivers will be counselled using myKIDNEY decision aid which includes a video. Patients will be asked to complete a values clarification exercise (VCE). If a caregiver is recruited without their patient, he/she will be asked to complete the VCE on patient's behalf (i.e., surrogate). At the end of VCE, the participant will be given real-time feedback on which treatment might be the best fit for the patient. With the patient's consent, this information will be shared with the treating physician who can then make recommendations based on the patient's preferences.
