Hemodialysis requires adherence to a complex diet that restricts nutrients in order to reduce complications and improve quality of life. However, dietary nonadherence is extremely prevalent in this population with many etiologies considered. The purpose of this study was to determine if renal nutrition knowledge differed between patients who are adherent and nonadherent to a renal diet. Participants were adult hemodialysis patients with a diagnosis of end stage renal disease who completed a questionnaire that tested their knowledge of renal diet components and the medical complications associated with nonadherence. A series of laboratory results consisting of serum phosphorus, serum potassium, and interdialytic weight gain divided the population as adherent or nonadherent. Data analysis showed no significant difference in renal knowledge scores between adherent and nonadherent participants (p<0.05). This indicates that education is not a significant factor in dietary nonadherence. Methods of behavior change should be explored to improve adherence. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would first like to express my appreciation to Dr. Natalie Caine-Bish for advising me through this process that initially seemed so intimidating and unattainable. Her persistent help and support kept me motivated through all of the bumps in the road. I would like to thank my committee members, Dr. Eun-Jeong Ha and Tanya Falcone, who took time to provide crucial advice and knowledge that improved my research drastically. Additionally, I would like to thank Judy Nagy for her passion to the field of renal nutrition that inspired this study. I truly appreciate the time and effort you put into helping me throughout this process. I would also like to thank the entire staff at CDC that allowed this research to happen and the patients who participated. You made my first research experience more enjoyable than I ever could have imagined. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS………………………………………………………………………iv CHAPTER I.

This decline can be stable and last many months or can rapidly progress to kidney failure. CKD is categorized into stages that are determined by glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and other factors that show evidence of kidney disease (Mahan, Escott-Stump, & Raymond, 2012). CKD affects nearly 1 in 8 adults globally, with approximately 2% of these individuals progressing to stage 5, also known as end stage renal disease (ESRD) (Lambert, Mullan, & Mansfield, 2017). Renal replacement therapy, or dialysis, is required to sustain life once a patient reaches ESRD (Barnett, Li Yoong, Pinikahana, & Si-Yen, 2008). Hemodialysis is the most common treatment for ESRD patients and requires attendance three times a week to remove uremic toxins and excess water that the kidneys no longer can. Although hemodialysis is performing the main function of the kidneys, a proper diet is necessary to minimize the accumulation of toxins, electrolytes, and fluid in the body between treatments (Barnett, Li Yoong, Pinikahana, & Si-Yen, 2008). The renal diet is extremely complex and involves potential restrictions of phosphorus, potassium, sodium, and fluid (Durose, Holdsworth, Watson, and Przygrodzka, 2004). Phosphorus is crucial for the formation of bone and other tissues (Nutrition and Hemodialysis, 2013). Phosphorus is a mineral that is abundant in dairy products, beans, nuts, colas, and processed foods, and often needs to be limited by dietary 1 2 restriction and/or phosphorus binders. Potassium helps the muscles and heart work properly and is found in certain fruits and vegetables, milk, and meats. Sodium, found in many snack foods, canned and frozen foods, sauces, and soups, can cause our body to hold on to extra fluid when consumed in excess amounts. Fluid is considered anything that is liquid at room temperature. Excess

  • 1.11 Diet Reference Guide
    RENAL DIET The guidelines below have been developed as a quick reference to help you guide your patients in regards to any queries regarding their renal diet. Goals of the Renal Diet Help prevent nutritional deficiencies Help prevent fluid retention Keep blood level within normal limits, by controlling potassium, phosphorous and sodium intake Maintain and protect bone strength Maintain a healthy body weight 1) Protein Intake: An adequate protein intake is important for growth and repair of body tissues. It helps fight infections and prevents muscle loss. The amount of protein required depends on individual requirements and form of renal replacement therapy. Most protein foods are high in phosphate. During dialysis patients lose some of their good protein, Albumin. Here are some ideas to help boost protein intake while maintaining a normal phosphate level. Protein is found in plant and animal foods. The protein from animal origin is more readily absorbed by the body. The plant sources tend to be high in phosphate or potassium so the animal sources are better for the body. ANIMAL SOURCES PLANT SOURCES (limit) Red meat (lamb/beef) Lentils Chicken Beans Fish Dried peas Cottage Cheese Soya Egg white Peanuts Fish paste Peanut butter Tuna Try to include a low phosphate protein with 2 meals every day. Although dairy products like milk and cheese are good sources of protein, they are high in phosphate. One can include a ½ cup of milk or yoghurt + either 1 egg or a small amount of cheese in the diet daily. HIGH PROTEIN BOOSTERS Try and include 1 – 2 of these high protein boosters in the diet every week to help boost your Albumin level.

  • Beyond Engagement: Strategies for Persuasion and Influence
    Beyond Engagement: Strategies for Persuasion and Influence Jennie Echols, PhD, MSN, RN Director of Clinical Solution Development Carenet Healthcare Services Engagement has been a focus in healthcare for the last decade and continues to be a major strategy asserted to improve health outcomes. The idea is that if healthcare consumers (e.g., health plan members, patients, employees, etc.) are more actively involved in their healthcare, better health outcomes will result along with reduced costs. As a result, healthcare organizations (i.e., payers and providers) have optimistically sought strategies to engage healthcare consumers. However, a critical question still needs to be addressed: What needs to happen within the engagement journey to maximize success? When talking about healthcare consumer engagement, most resources talk about multi-channel communication strategies including the use of digital technology. Although engagement has been increasingly associated with technology, there is some debate regarding its role. “…you can’t just throw technology at the problem and expect to solve patient engagement…patient engagement is a far more nuanced challenge, one that’s directly tied to adherence and outcomes. The answer, therefore, cannot merely be to ‘go digital.’”1 There is less discussion regarding the art of dialogue and nuance that must accompany the communication, regardless of the communication avenue. While engagement is a necessity, there is a need to explore how tools such as influence and persuasion fit into the model to achieve activation whereby a person implements a behavior change or action to achieve a health goal. INFLUWP_JUL2017 To dr iv e e n gage me n t, “persuasion it is important to inform works by appealing healthcare consumers about what they stand to gain by to a limited set proactively participating in of deeply rooted their healthcare, and even more importantly, what human drives and they’re likely to lose if needs” they fail to act.

Objective: We aimed to examine the impact of self-focused AR and vicarious reinforcement on psychological predictors of behavior change during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, our study included measures of fear and message minimization to assess potential adverse reactions to the design interventions. Methods: A between-subjects web-based experiment was conducted to compare the health perceptions of participants in self-focused AR and vicarious reinforcement design conditions to those in a control condition. Participants were randomly assigned to the control group or to an intervention condition (ie, self-focused AR, reinforcement, self-focus AR × reinforcement, and avatar). Results: A total of 335 participants were included in the analysis. We found that participants who experienced self-focused AR and vicarious reinforcement scored higher in perceived threat severity (P=.03) and susceptibility (P=.01) when compared to the control.
