Mobile Technology and Online Tools to Track Adherence in Chronic Illness Patients

Completed · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Renal Insufficiency, Chronic

In brief

The purpose of this project is to test the efficacy of Planet K, a mobile and web-based technology infrastructure specifically designed to (a) enhance youths' chronic kidney disease- and treatment-related knowledge through interactive and game-based educational materials; (b) support adherence to the treatment regimen through customized task prompts via mobile and web-based delivery; and (c) promote patient-provider communication through real-world data collection and feedback loops. Investigators will examine the effectiveness of the Planet K mobile app and website in improving treatment adherence, disease-related knowledge, transition readiness, condition management, and the psychological correlates of these variables in adolescents and young adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
