Christopher Chan, MD, discusses why digital counseling was linked to higher home KRT uptake only among motivationally ready patients with CKD. An automated digital counseling program did not increase overall uptake of home kidney replacement therapy (KRT) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but patients who were motivationally ready at baseline were substantially more likely to initiate home KRT with the intervention, according to the ODYSSEE-Kidney Health trial.1Christopher Chan, MD, of University Health Network in Toronto, presented the findings at ASN Kidney Week 2026 in Denver, Colorado. “We need to know our patients’ preference, we need to know our patients’ goals, and we also need to match the education towards their goals and preferences,” Chan told HCPLive. Task force guidelines advocate informed decision-making about home-based KRT, including home peritoneal dialysis, home hemodialysis, and preemptive kidney transplant evaluation.1 ODYSSEE is a digital cognitive behavioral therapy platform previously studied in hypertension and heart failure, Chan explained, designed to support education, self-efficacy, and patient activation.
