Increasing Autonomous Motivation in ESRD to Enhance Phosphate Binder Adherence

April 27, 2016 updated by: Ebele Umeukeje, Vanderbilt University

Hyperphosphatemia in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients is a non-traditional risk factor for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Non-adherence to phosphate binders is as high as 74% in ESRD patients and has been shown to be most related to psychosocial factors including attitudes. There is limited data on the influence of attitudes and perceived autonomy support on phosphate binder adherence and these two psychosocial constructs can be positively influenced through the use of motivational interviewing skills to increase autonomous motivation. Furthermore, racial disparities are known to exist in ESRD however and there are still gaps, which exist in understanding the determinants of disparities in adherence in vulnerable patients with ESRD.

In this study, the investigators seek to determine the impact of motivational interviewing on phosphate binder adherence in diverse ESRD patients. The investigators will ask all the subjects to fill out surveys mainly regarding their attitudes; perceived providers' autonomy support and phosphate binder adherence. The investigators will administer motivational counseling to subjects in the intervention arm of the study, at baseline and 1 month after recruitment. The investigators will ask all the subjects to fill out the same surveys 2 months after recruitment and the investigators will compare subjects who underwent motivational interviewing to those who did not.
