Are you a family caregiver for an LO with end stage kidney disease or chronic kidney disease who is receiving dialysis?

Would you be willing to provide input about how you and your LO receive dialysis information and news (eg: advancements)?

Disclosure: The information gathered here is for one of my clients, a medical device company, that has an FDA-approved treatment option specific to AV fistula maintenance.

Your responses can help provide insight for how the company can better reach dialysis decision influencers about treatment options. Any input referenced to the company will be kept anonymous.

Who should provide input?

- Caregivers whose LO’s are dialysis patients (for a minimum of 6 months and longer)

- Caregivers whose LO’s on dialysis have an AV fistula

- Caregivers and LO’s who are US residents and are receiving dialysis in the US only.

Deadline:
Please provide input up to 5pm on Thursday, January 21st.

How do you and your LO currently receive information about dialysis?

__ Your LO’s dialysis tech
__ Your LO’s Nephrologist
__ Your LO’s Primary doctor
__ Your LO’s Vascular surgeon / interventionalist
__ From your dialysis center website (eg: Davita.com or Fresenius.com) or hospital or clinic where your LO’s dialysis is performed
__ Social media (FaceBook, YouTube, Twitter, other)
__ Self-education (you proactively search different sources and platforms for the latest information on behalf of your LO)
__ A home dialysis support group
