Abstract:
There is inequity in provision of physical rehabilitation services for people living with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The Kidney BEAM trial evaluated the clinical value and cost effectiveness of a physical activity digital health intervention in CKD. In a single-blind, 11 centre, randomised controlled trial, 340 adult participants with CKD were randomly assigned to either the Kidney BEAM physical activity digital health intervention or a waitlist control. The primary outcomes were the difference in the Kidney Disease Quality of Life Short Form 1.3 Mental Component Summary (KDQoL-SF1.3 MCS) between intervention and control groups at 6 months, and cost-effectiveness. At 6 months there was a significant difference in mean adjusted change in KDQoL MCS score between Kidney BEAM and waitlist control (intention-to-treat adjusted mean: 5.9 {95% confidence interval: 4.4 to 7.5} arbitrary units, p<0.0001), and a 93% and 98% chance of the intervention being cost-effective at a willingness to pay threshold of £20,000 and £30,000 per quality-adjusted life year gained. In conclusion, the Kidney BEAM physical activity digital health intervention is a clinically valuable and cost-effective means to improve mental health related quality of life in people with CKD (trial registration no. NCT04872933).
