Product Selection

The Perceived Kidney/Dialysis Self-Management Scale (PKDSMS) was adapted from the previously validated Perceived Medical Condition Self-Management Scale.  The PKDSMS, is a validated and reliable measure of CKD patient self-efficacy and supports the development of interventions enhancing perceived competence to improve CKD self-care.

The Kidney Knowledge Survey (KiKS) is reliable and valid and identifies areas of poor kidney knowledge. The KiKS was developed to measure patient knowledge about many topics integral to self-care practices and prevention of CKD progression including basic terms, evaluation and diagnostic procedures, and risk factors of kidney disease.

The Perceived Kidney Disease Knowledge Survey (PiKS) is a validated and reliable measure to evaluate distinct forms of patient perceived kidney knowledge. This is distinct from objective knowledge, and aligned with an individual’s preferences and self-efficacy.

The Kidney Disease Behavior Inventory (KDBI) is a listing of behaviors important for kidney health self-care including at-home monitoring of vital signs or other biomarkers, nutrition, physical activity, medication taking, and engagement with health care. Versions for chronic kidney disease and dialysis are available.
