Summary

The improvement in morbidity and mortality observed with kidney transplantation is often curtailed by post-transplant weight gain, which is common among kidney transplant recipients (KTR). Post-transplant weight gain is associated with serious health issues such as cardiovascular disease, new onset diabetes after transplantation, and graft failure. Although these adverse effects of post-transplant weight gain are well recognized, interventions that target the modifiable risk factors of diet and physical activity to address post-transplantation weight gain are lacking. The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of an in-home, televideo health coaching to increase the healthy behaviors of KTRs who are 6 months post-transplantation.
