Title: Enhancing Education Regarding Living Donor Transplant Among Kidney Transplant Candidates
Brief Summary: The primary purpose of this study is to test different methods by which kidney transplant centers can educate potential transplant candidates about living donor kidney transplant (LDKT).

The most effective ways to educate kidney transplant candidates about LDKT remain unclear. The goal is to determine, among a diverse cohort of potential kidney transplant candidates, whether a transplant center-based intervention will increase understanding of the opportunities for and process, risks, and benefits of living kidney donation and LDKT. The investigators hypothesize that kidney transplant candidates' understanding of living kidney donation and LDKT will be increased by interventions implemented at the transplant center on the day of transplant evaluation.

The investigators propose a single-center, 2-arm, cluster-randomized, controlled trial to compare the effects of two educational strategies upon transplant candidates' understanding of living kidney donation and LDKT:

1. Usual transplant education implemented by the transplant center, on the day of the transplant evaluation (standard care); and
2. Intensive initial transplant education implemented on the day of the transplant evaluation.

Intensive initial transplant education will utilize videos of living donors' experiences as well as a session with a trained Transplant Educator, who will focus upon living donation education. One week after the transplant evaluation day and 3 months later, the investigators will assess transplant candidates' knowledge of LDKT (using questionnaires), identify correlates of increased understanding of LDKT, and assess racial/ethnic differences in the understanding of LDKT.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Dialysis facilities within GA were considered for this intervention due to data restrictions. The remaining facilities were selected in a step-wise selection process 1) The presence of a racial disparity in referral or 2) a crude referral risk less than six percent.
* The presence of a racial disparity was based on the crude referral risk difference and the standardized referral risk difference.
* The remaining facilities had a calculated 6-month crude referral risk mean of 0.06 and all facilities with a crude referral risk less than the mean were selected for inclusion.
* The final pool of 134 facilities were randomized to either the intervention or control group using a one to one ratio.

Exclusion:

* Facilities with a 6-month population (from June-December 2012) of less than 13 End Stage Renal Disease patients \<70 years of age within a facility were excluded.
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* English-speaking
* 21 years or older
* Kidney Transplant candidates eligible: 1) completed the first phase of transplant evaluation education, and 2) wait-listed patients expected to receive a transplant within the next 6 months, returning for re-evaluation.

Exclusion Criteria:

* No special classes of study participants, including fetuses, neonates, prisoners, institutionalized individuals, or other vulnerable populations will be included in the proposed study. Although pregnant women will be eligible for participation in the study, they are unlikely to be selected for kidney transplantation.
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Appear for initial kidney transplant evaluation at Saint Barnabas Medical Center
* 18 years of age or older
* Able to provide informed consent
* Able to speak, hear, and understand English

Exclusion Criteria:
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Age greater than or equal to 18 and less than 90
* Chronic kidney disease stage 3, 4 or 5
* Adequate visual acuity with correction to allow discrimination of 14-point type
* Ability to read English
* Ability to provide informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

* Anticipated need for renal replacement therapy within 60 days
* Prison population
