Longitudinal survey of clinician behavior change in CKD management
Conclusions:
This study demonstrates that a single-intervention quality improvement program can affect sustained improvements in clinical care of patients with diabetes and CKD. The results provide evidence that one-time quality improvement interventions have the power to promote longitudinal practice changes associated with reduced rates of CKD progression and potentially reduced healthcare costs.
