Study Summary

Receiving supportive mentoring from well-adjusted individuals who share similar experiences has had a positive influence on adjustment with some chronic diseases. In this study, patients with advanced chronic kidney disease and caregivers of such patients will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: (1) face-to-face PFPP-individuals will receive six months of PFPP peer-mentoring, along with an informational text; (2) online PFPP-individuals will receive six months of online peer-mentoring modeled after the PFPP program, along with an informational text; and (3) information-only control group-individuals will receive the text of the material provided to the other two groups. The study team's decision to include an online version is based on suggestions by previous participants who indicated that this would be convenient for individuals for whom distance and geographic location are major considerations of participation. The investigators expect that both face-to-face and online peer-mentorship programs will result in improved quality of life among patients with advanced kidney disease and decreased feeling of burden among caregivers of these patients. The investigators also expect that mentorship will lead to improved engagement of patients in their own care.

Primary Outcome

The Kidney Disease Quality of Life-36 (KDQOL-36) score is the primary outcome measure. The KDQOL-36 contains 5 subscales: the Physical Component Summary (PCS), Mental Component Summary (MCS), Burden of Kidney Disease (BKD), Symptoms and Problems of Kidney Disease (SPKD), and Effects of Kidney Disease (EKD). The range for the sore of each domain is 0-100. Higher scores represent improved Quality of Life. Change in the scores of components of the KDQOL is the outcome variable of interest. We compu
