Summary

This trial will test whether providing patients with information about their risk of kidney failure improves quality of care, health literacy, and trust in the care they are receiving.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with moderate to severe chronic kidney disease (CKD Stages G3-G5) who are treated at primary care clinics in Manitoba and Alberta that use an electronic medical record system capable of integrating the kidney failure risk equation (KFRE).
What is being tested?
The study tests if providing personalized information about kidney failure risk, alongside usual care, improves patient care. Clinics will either integrate this approach or continue with standard care without personalized risk info.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves knowledge translation rather than medication, traditional side effects aren't expected. However, there may be impacts on patients' emotional well-being due to awareness of their CKD progression risks.

Study objectives can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary study objectives
Proportion of CKD patients in each clinic who have albuminuria (albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR)) tested
