What this trial studies

RESET-CKD is designed to help Black adults aged 35 to 80 with chronic kidney disease (CKD) reduce their sedentary behavior. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group focused on decreasing sitting time or a control group receiving CKD-related education. The study will follow participants for 12 weeks to assess the effectiveness of the intervention in promoting more active lifestyles. The goal is to improve health outcomes by addressing sedentary behavior in this population.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are Black or African American adults aged 35 to 80 with CKD stages 1-4 who report 6 or more hours of sedentary time daily.

Not a fit: Patients who are unable to walk a block or have conditions that severely limit mobility may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this intervention could lead to improved health outcomes and quality of life for Black adults with chronic kidney disease by reducing sedentary behavior.

How similar studies have performed: While there is ongoing research into sedentary behavior interventions, this specific approach targeting Black adults with CKD is relatively novel.
