Older Patients’ Perspectives on Managing Complexity in CKD Self-Management

Abstract: Among older veterans with moderate-to-severe CKD, multimorbidity presents a major challenge for CKD self-management. Because virtually all older adults with CKD have multimorbidity, an integrated treatment approach that supports self-management across commonly occurring conditions may be necessary to meet the needs of these patients.

“…6,7 Furthermore, the accumulated effect of preventing or treating each disease, risk factor, and health complaint often results in treatment burden. 5,[8][9][10][11][12][13] Decision making for individuals with MCCs should involve explicit consideration of a variety of care options according to the tradeoffs among potential benefits, burden, and harms, with the optimal choice determined by individuals' specific health outcome goals and healthcare preferences. 7,14,[16][17][18]…”

“…Like other populations with chronic illness, patients with CKD can have a high symptom burden, a high prevalence of other comorbid conditions, and limited life expectancy (1). Several recent studies among members of this population suggest that the concerns of patients can be diametrically opposed to those of their providers, and that patients may experience their illness and care in ways that might be surprising to providers (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8). These studies illuminate patients' experiences in ways that provide both impetus and direction for efforts to make care for this population more patient-centered.…”
