Summary

The goal of this is to test the efficacy of a 12-week physical activity intervention in 64 adolescents with CKD.

Detailed description

For youth with chronic kidney disease (CKD), cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of morbidity and early mortality. Physical activity is a well-recognized determinant of health and quality of life, but, youth with CKD are less physically active than their healthy peers. Identification of effective strategies to increase physical activity in youth with CKD is paramount to improving outcomes. The investigators will test the efficacy of a 12-week physical activity intervention in 64 adolescents with CKD. Guided by the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST) framework, an optimization trial will identify intervention components that increase average daily moderate to vigorous physical activity by 15 min/day, a clinically meaningful increase. The components will be grounded in established behavioral change theories and be delivered via Way to Health, a web-based platform, to overcome barriers at the point of clinical care where time and resources are limited.
