Brief Summary: Latinos with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) represent 17% of the US adult ESRD community and suffer a disproportionate burden of social challenges that impacts their well-being. With support from the Amos award from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), the investigators assessed the feasibility of a 1-arm intervention of a 5-visit lay Peer Navigator intervention to support Latino ESRD patients with social challenges and adherence (using motivational interviewing \& patient activation). This trial will build on the Amos work as a small Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT). The overall aims of this proposal are to: 1) engage key operational and clinical stakeholders early-on to develop a Peer Navigator-intervention; 2) conduct a pilot RCT of the peer navigator intervention versus standard care to test feasibility and acceptability; and 3) assess the efficacy of the intervention on interdialytic weight gain (primary outcome) as well as health-related quality of life, patient activation, and hemodialysis adherence (secondary outcomes).
Detailed Description: The goal of this project is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a pilot RCT of a culturally tailored peer-navigator (PN) intervention to improve patient-centered and clinical outcomes for Latino patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). We will compare a culturally tailored intervention that includes a PN to control (standard care). In the culturally tailored intervention, the bilingual PN will provide support with social challenges during 5 visits. We will assess the feasibility of (1) referral, (2) recruitment, (3) retention, (4) intervention implementation, and (5) data collection. We will also assess various outcomes including inter-dialytic weight gain and other adherence and patient-centered outcomes. Specific Aim 1: Conduct a pilot RCT of the peer navigator intervention to assess feasibility, acceptability, as well as outcomes of the proposed peer navigator intervention. Hypothesis 1: A culturally tailored intervention that consists of a bilingual/culture-concordant peer navigator that provides support with social challenges and support with adherence using motivational interviewing for Latino end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients, is feasible and acceptable.
