A Study of Facilitators and Barriers to Improve Acute Kidney Injury in Children Through Mobile Health Intervention

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The purpose of this study is to improve patient-centered care for acute kidney injury (AKI) in order to decrease the adverse health outcomes associated with this common condition.

Detailed Description
-----------------
There is a need to provide better patient-centered care for acute kidney injury (AKI) in order to improve the adverse health outcomes associated with this common condition. This project involves thorough evaluation of patient and provider feedback on barriers and facilitators to pediatric AKI self-management in order to develop patient-centered pediatric AKI interventions. This will be done through interviews with families of patients diagnosed with AKI and providers who take care of these patients followed by integration of the results into modification of an existing educational tool previously used in adult patients. The study will take place in three parts with the first involving interviews, the second involving tool modification and usability testing, and the third involving pilot testing of the tool's impact.

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) Knowledge Assessment score | AKI Knowledge Assessment administered as pre-test prior to intervention and post-test one month after intervention. This assessment is scored with minimum value of 0% and maximum value of 100%. A higher score is a better outcome. | Baseline, 1 month |
