Identifying Adaptation Needs of a Decision Aid for Older Latino Adults With Advanced CKD: A Qualitative Study

Latino adults aged 65 years and older comprise the fastest growing minoritized group in the United States and experience a disproportionate burden of kidney failure. Decision aids improve decisional quality and goal-concordant care among older patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, decision aids for kidney replacement therapy have yet to be adapted for the older Latino adult population with advanced CKD. This study assessed the acceptability, accessibility and adaptions needed to facilitate use of a Spanish version of the Decision-Aid for Renal Therapy (DART-S) for older Latino adults with advanced CKD.
