5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Apply Mobile APP Intervention ( iCKD APP) to current chronic kidney disease care program. Conduct a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of this mobile device on health behavior improvement in chronic kidney disease patients.
Detailed Description
A mHealth app (iCKD APP) was designed to assist CKD patients to monitor their home bio-information data. Patients will be randomly assigned into the iCKD APP group(intervention) and traditional care group (control). Participants will be randomized into an 1:1 manner (intervention : control). Random assignment occurred after the consent and initial enrollment interview. Individuals randomized to the iCKD APP will provide with the equipment after randomization. Participants will follow for at least 6 months before the exit interview.
