Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Cross-sectional validation study of a Scored Salt Questionnaire (SSQ). The SSQ is a self-administered and scored questionnaire consisting of 30 questions relating to common foods and sodium-related behaviour patterns identified from food records collected previously from the local renal population. To validate this tool, assessment of agreement between sodium intake score from the SSQ and the gold-standard 24-hour urinary sodium excretion (mmol) will be undertaken using Bland-Altman plat and inter-class correlation. It is anticipated this study will take 18months in total including data analysis and write-up.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 266464 0
Assessment of agreement between sodium intake score from the Scored Salt Questionnaire and the gold-standard 24-hour urinary sodium excretion (mmol)
Timepoint [1] 266464 0
Scored Salt Questionnaire completed on the day participants finish the 24-hour urine collection. The assessment of agreement will occur at the end of the study once all data has been collected.
Secondary outcome [1] 273816 0
The secondary aim is to describe the habitual sodium intake of a cohort of CKD patients attending hospital outreach clinics.
Timepoint [1] 273816 0
This will occur at the end of the study once all data has been collected.
