Survey of Patient and Physician Awareness and Values to the Diagnosis and Treatment of Reduced Kidney Function (Chronic Kidney Disease) in Patients With High Blood Sugar Level (Type 2 Diabetes) (AWARE-CKD in T2D) (AWARE-CKD)

April 20, 2022 updated by: Bayer

Awareness of Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

In this survey study, researchers want to find out more about how physicians are treating patients diagnosed with reduced kidney function (chronic kidney disease, CKD) and high blood sugar level (type 2 diabetes); what physicians know about the different treatment options available; and how they use this knowledge to treat their patients successfully. Additionally, researchers want to gather information about patient's awareness of their disease and which criteria they consider important for their treatment of the disease.

The study will survey a total of 150 patients with type 2 diabetes: 50 patients with mild CKD; 50 patients with moderate CKD; and 50 patients with severe CKD. Patients eligible for this study can be male or female and should be at least 18 years old. In addition, a total of 150 physicians will be surveyed. Physicians eligible for this study may be general practitioners, endocrinologist, or nephrologists.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The primary objective in this study is to assess the awareness, values and preferences of patients and physicians with respect to the risks, consequences and management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Secondary objectives aim to assess awareness of available CKD treatments, referral tools and communication between patients and physicians.

Both patients and physicians will complete a survey that consists of various questions regarding the knowledge of disease, values and treatments, patient-physician interaction, physician referral tools and disease risk management.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Awareness of chronic kidney disease in T2D
Time Frame: 1 day
Awareness will be summarized descriptively based on various survey questions.
1 day
Values regarding chronic kidney disease in T2D
Time Frame: 1 day
Values regarding risks, consequences and management of chronic kidney disease will be summarized descriptively based on various survey questions.
1 day
Preferences regarding chronic kidney disease in T2D
Time Frame: 1 day
Preferences regarding risks, consequences and management of chronic kidney disease will be summarized descriptively based on various survey questions.
1 day

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Awareness of available treatments for chronic kidney disease in T2D
Time Frame: 1 day
Awareness of available treatments will be summarized descriptively based on various survey questions.
1 day
Physician awareness of available referral tools for the management of chronic kidney disease in T2D
Time Frame: 1 day
Physician cohort only. Referral tools may comprise of various standard guidelines (e.g. KidneyWise, KDIGO guidelines, Diabetes Canada guidelines). A higher number of referral tools known by physicians indicates a better awareness of CKD referral tools.
