Summary

Home dialysis modalities, including peritoneal dialysis (PD) and home hemodialysis (HHD), represent alternatives to conventional in-center hemodialysis (HD) that for some patients may be better aligned with preferences regarding the integration of dialysis treatments into their lives. Assessment of patient experience and satisfaction with care among individuals undergoing maintenance dialysis in the United States is a national health care priority and mandated by Congress. While validated instruments (ICH CAHPS) are in use to assess patient experience with in-center HD, currently no validated instruments are available to measure patient-reported experience in home dialysis.

This Home Patient Experience Survey Validation Study is an in-house research study conducted in partnership with the University of Washington.

Description

Assessment of patient experience and satisfaction with care among individuals undergoing maintenance dialysis in the United States is a national health care priority and mandated by Congress. No validated instruments are available to measure the patient-reported experience of care in-home dialysis patients. Such tools are needed as more patients are expected to choose home dialysis therapies in the future. This study aims to validate a home patient experience survey instrument.

This is a cross-sectional validation to determine the measurement properties of a new home dialysis patient experience survey instrument. Satellite Healthcare home dialysis patients will be approached by mail or by phone to complete the survey.

The aim of this study is to perform field testing for this newly developed instrument for the purposes of instrument validation and to determine survey instrument measurement properties. This will include the evaluation of any multi-item scales as well as an overall score.
