Study Summary

The SMaRRT-HD trial is a cluster randomized trial of symptom monitoring with supported clinician follow-up using the SMaRRT-HD electronic patient reported outcome measure (ePROM) system versus Usual Care. Approximately 2400 patients at up to 36 geographically and racially diverse US hemodialysis clinics will be enrolled. The primary trial hypothesis is that regular symptom patient reported outcome measure (PROM) administration with supported clinician follow-up in dialysis care will reduce suffering and improve outcomes by prompting treatment of unrecognized symptoms, and enhancing patient-care team communication. Clinics randomized to the SMaRRT-HD group will adopt the use of SMaRRT-HD for 12 months. SMaRRT-HD is a symptom monitoring system that includes 1) tablet-based symptom reporting using a PROM and 2) supported clinician follow-up consisting of symptom alerts, guidances for symptom management, and symptom tracking reports that are shared with patients. Dialysis clinics randomized to Usual Care will not adopt SMaRRT-HD or any other trial-driven procedures. Usual Care clinics will monitor symptoms through clinical care interactions with participants and by administering a Health Related Quality of Life survey that includes questions about symptoms.

Primary Outcome

This outcome will be assessed as change in the Dialysis Symptom Index-Severity Score over 12 months (primary endpoint). Participants are asked whether or not they experienced symptoms during the past week. If the response is yes, the participant is asked to indicate "How much did it bother you?". Lowest score - 0; Highest score - 150. A higher score indicates a worse outcome.
