Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a telemedicine follow-up visit at the NYU Langone Transplant Institute is a feasible and acceptable alternative to a traditional in-center follow-up visit.


Clinical Trial Description

A six-month prospective randomized-controlled clinical pilot study to evaluate a new intervention for the transplant program: telemedicine (TM) visits. Researchers will target patients on the transplant waiting list who are currently undergoing dialysis. Currently, there are 234 patients on the transplant waiting list who receiving care at dialysis centers in the New York City area. Researchers will select the 10 dialysis centers having the highest number of patients on the transplant list in order to yield a target sample of 45. Eligible participants will be randomized to 1 of 2 groups: (1) usual care (UC) which is the routine 6-month follow up appointment at the NYULMC transplant center or (2) TM visit conducted at the patient's dialysis unit as a replacement to usual 6 month routine f/u visit. Patients will be followed for 4 months post randomization to determine the number of days that elapse between randomization and routine transplant evaluation. As new clinic appointments are currently experiencing 80-day wait, a 4-month follow-up should be more than adequate to evaluate this primary outcome. The intervention will be evaluated primarily in terms of efficiency, and secondarily in terms of patient/physician experiences, changes in waiting list status, and referral for living donation. ;
