AIM: To introduce a new service delivery intervention to improve equity of access to home dialysis therapy and describe the process of intervention development.
BACKGROUND: Despite strong evidence in favour of home dialysis, its uptake remains stubbornly low in England and elsewhere. Furthermore, uptake levels vary between kidney services and between population groups. The Inter-CEPt study identified several enablers of access to home dialysis, including: receptive organisational cultures; adoption of reflective practice; engagement in quality improvement, and shared belief in the benefit of home dialysis.
METHODS: Drawing on the Inter-CEPt study, and using established intervention development frameworks, we developed 'Location of Dialysis Care in Kidney Life' as a targeted intervention for improving the uptake of home dialysis. In this paper, the intervention and the processes involved in its design are described. This involved co-design workshops with professional stakeholders and people with lived experience.
PROPOSED SERVICE INTERVENTION: The Location of Dialysis Care in Kidney Life intervention consists of two principal components: (1) quality improvement activities focussed on supporting dialysis care in the home, and (2) dedicated home therapies leadership roles and activities in kidney services. The rationale of the intervention is to develop and sustain a culture that improves equitable access to home dialysis.
CONCLUSION: We report a staged process of intervention development that combines the principles of evidence-based intervention development and user co-design. The resulting intervention proposal can be adapted by kidney services to meet their specific needs and challenges. The study identifies organisational culture as one of the biggest determinants of uptake in home dialysis. No other study to our knowledge has fully investigated this as a barrier to home dialysis, nor indeed how to begin to change it. The Location of Dialysis Care in Kidney Life intervention requires future piloting and evaluation.
