Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

MoVE Trial is a randomized clinical trial designed to rigorously test the impact of a behavioral intervention (culturally tailored motivational interviewing - (MOVE)) delivered by trained health coaches, on hemodialysis treatment non-adherence. It is a a two-arm, parallel group randomized clinical trial with 24-week follow-up. It involves completion of surveys by patients enrolled in the study. It also involves participation in motivational interviewing sessions by patients who are randomized to the intervention (MI).

Motivational interviewing intervention

Behavioral: Motivational interviewing
In this trial, motivational interviewing (MI) is the intervention. The MI sessions will embody the spirit of MI (PACE - Partnership, Acceptance, Compassion and Evocation) and the use of MI strategies (OARS - Open-ended questions, Affirmations, Reflections and Summaries) and MI communication processes (engagement, focusing, evoking and planning).

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Dialysis treatment adherence [Baseline to 24 weeks post-intervention]

      Abstraction of dialysis treatment adherence data from the dialysis units' records which includes data on every treatment that occurred or should have occurred within the time frame. Records will reflect dialysis treatments which were completed, shortened, missed or did not occur due to hospitalizations, ER visits or travel.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change in Autonomous Regulation [Baseline, Week 8, Week 24]

      Change in autonomous regulation will be measured by the 6-item Autonomous Regulation (AR) questionnaire. Questions range in score from 1 to 7, and overall score is a mean of all items (range 1 - 7). Lower scores reflect less autonomous regulation, and higher scores reflect greater autonomous regulation

    2. Change in Autonomy Support [Baseline, Week 8, Week 24]

      Change in autonomy support will be measured by the 6-item Health Care Climate (HCC) questionnaire. Questions range in score from 1 to 7, and overall score is a mean of all items (range 1 - 7). Lower scores reflect less autonomous support, and higher scores reflect greater autonomous support.

    3. Change in Perceived competence [Baseline, Week 8, Week 24]

      Change in perceived competence will be measured by the 8-item Perceived Kidney Disease Self-Management Scale (PKDSMS) questionnaire.Each question ranges in score from 1 to 5. Four of the items (#s 1, 2, 6, 7) are reversed-scored. The score is the sum of the 8 individual items. The total PKDSMS score can range from 8 to 40, with higher scores indicating more confidence in self-managing one's (dialysis).

    4. Change in Apathy [Baseline, Week 8, Week 24]

      Change in apathy will be measured by the 7-item Apathy Evaluation Scale survey (AES-S) which measures three domains of apathy: deficits in goal-directed behavior; a decrement in goal-related thought content; and emotional indifference with flat affect. Each question ranges in score from 1 to 4. Item 3 is reverse-scored and then the sum of the 7 item scores is calculated. Range of scores is 7-28.

    5. Change in Optimism [Baseline, Week 8, Week 24]

      Change in optimism will be measured by the 10-item Life Orientation Test - Revised (LOT-R) questionnaire which assesses individual differences in generalized optimism versus pessimism. Only 6 of the 10 items on the revised LOT are used to derive an optimism score. Four of the items are filler items and are not used in scoring. Of the 6 survey questions utilized, each question ranges in score from 1 to 5. Thus, scores in principle can range from 6 to 30.
