Abstract
Objective
To evaluate the effectiveness of a new media-based stratified health education program in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Methods
This single-center, prospective, non-randomized, quasi-experimental controlled intervention study screened 312 patients and enrolled 276 eligible patients (observation group, n=134; control group, n=142). After 1:1 propensity score matching, 100 patients per group were included in the matched analysis. The control group received conventional health education, whereas the observation group received a new media-based stratified health education program for 12 months. Health knowledge awareness, CKD self-management behavior, eGFR, UACR, and nursing satisfaction were evaluated.
