Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Chronic Kidney Disease
• Interventions: Behavioral: multidisciplinary care

• Registration Number: NCT04300387
• Lead Sponsor: Chang Gung Memorial Hospital

Brief Summary

CKD is a global endemic disease with increased comorbidities and mortality. The prevalence and the incidence of the end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are extremely high in Taiwan. Early diagnosis of disease and proper management remain challenging. The aims of this study are:

1. Explore risk factors associated with CKD

2. Establish multidisciplinary care model for CKD patients

3. Development cost-effective clinical care pathway for CKD

4. Provide bio-specimen repository for future study
