Summary

This trial will compare two approaches to help Hispanic/Latino and American Indian patients overcome barriers to completing transplant evaluation and receiving a kidney transplant.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with kidney disease, specifically Hispanic/Latino and American Indian patients at the University of New Mexico. They must be mentally competent and not currently waitlisted at another center or have had a previous kidney transplant. Pregnant women, children under 18, incarcerated individuals, those with recent non-skin cancer or cognitive impairments are excluded.
What is being tested?
The study compares two methods to help overcome barriers to getting a kidney transplant: a streamlined evaluation process (KTFT) and peer-assisted support (PN). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of these approaches to see which is more effective and cost-efficient in aiding them through the transplant evaluation process.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on evaluating processes rather than medical treatments, traditional side effects associated with medications are not applicable. However, participants may experience stress or emotional impacts related to navigating the transplantation process.
