Testing an online decision aid for heart and kidney disease
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study is testing an online tool called 'My Heart and CKD' that helps people with both chronic kidney disease and heart disease make decisions about their care. The goal is to see if it is easy to use and helpful for patients and their doctors.
