CKD Self-management: Phenotypes and Associations With Clinical Outcomes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To slow chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression and its complications, patients need to engage in self-management behaviors. The objective of this study was to classify CKD self-management behaviors into phenotypes and assess the association of these phenotypes with clinical outcomes.

Study design

Prospective cohort study.

Setting & participants

Adults with mild to moderate CKD enrolled in the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) Study. 3,939 participants in the CRIC Study recruited between 2003 and 2008 served as the derivation cohort and 1,560 participants recruited between 2013 and 2015 served as the validation cohort.

Predictors

CKD self-management behavior phenotypes.

Outcomes

CKD progression, atherosclerotic events, heart failure e
