DEVELOPMENT OF A DIGITAL SELF-MANAGEMENT EDUCATION PROGRAMME TO IMPROVE HEALTH BEHAVIOURS IN PEOPLE WITH NON-DIALYSIS CKD
Background and Aims
Appropriate disease and healthcare management are key behaviours for health optimisation in people with long-term conditions including CKD. Effective self-management of health requires appropriate knowledge, skills and confidence. Digital health interventions are potentially appealing tools to improve knowledge and self-management behaviours, as well as actively involving individuals in their healthcare, particularly in the post-COVID-19 era. However, the development strategies and processes behind such interventions are poorly defined. Here we describe the systematic development of a digital self-management programme for people living with non-dialysis CKD which includes novel approaches to improving self-management and health behaviours.
