Study Summary
This randomized study will pilot test an intervention, based on self-efficacy theory and involving personal digital assistant (PDA)-based dietary self-monitoring, to improve adherence to the peritoneal dialysis dietary regimen. 60 individuals, 21 years of age or older, who are on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis or nightly cycler peritoneal dialysis, will be recruited to the study. Participants will be randomized to one of 2 groups. Group A will receive a 4-month active intervention of decreasing intensity over time delivered via mail, telephone, and during regularly scheduled dialysis clinic visits. Group B will receive a 4-month attention control experience in which they receive reinforcement of standard dietary education. With this study the investigators will: 1. Explore the impact of the intervention on dietary sodium intake, 2. Explore the intervention on blood pressure, 3. Explore the impact of the intervention on morning post dialysis weight (i.e. weight after conclusion of continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD) or after long dwell for continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients, AND 4. Explore the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention
