The Intervention Group

Group 1, Motivational Interviewing intervention: Following completion of the questionnaire (10 minutes) and random allocation, each participant in Group 1 will receive information relating to their treatment from the registered nurse will conduct a once off 30 minutes interview, with Motivational Interviewing strategies using the 5As model. This model is designed to formally involve you in decision making about the education and information you receive for your care. Any other routine or usual care from the regular medical and nursing clinicians from the Home Independent Dialysis treatment service HIDTS will also be provided."

Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
About 72 participants are expected to participate in this study and the duration of participation is expected to be 12 weeks. Once consent has been obtained, the Renal Nurses will ring the off site randomiser. Participants will either be in the control group or the intervention. They will be randomly allocated into one of the two (2) groups:Group 1 (Motivational Interviewing Intervention) and Group 2 (Routine or Usual Care). Particpants and those providing the treatment will be blinded to the randomisation process. Participants will be blinded to the Intervention as they are unaware as to whom has been trained in the counselling intervention. The researcher is blinded to the data collection and input.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Simple randomisation using a randomisation table created by computer software will randomly allocate the participants.

Efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
Sample Size: To see a minimum clinical difference of 15 points on the primary outcome measure the SUPPH (self-efficacy scale) with a standard deviation of 10, using a 5% level of significance and 80% power, 36 patients per group was required. That is 36 in the intervention and 36 in the control groups.

Data Analysis: All statistical data will be analysed using SPSS. Categorical data will be expressed as frequencies and percentages. Fisher’s exact test and logistic regression will be used to compare differences between groups. Continuous data will be expressed as the difference between 12 weeks and baseline, and will be described by means and standard deviations. ANOVA and t-tests will be used to analyse the relationships between two or more groups.

Summary
Brief summary
Psycho-educational support is recommended as essential for patients undertaking self-management of their dialysis treatment An intervention such as motivational interviewing (MI), the use of the 5 As model and information giving from nurses may promote behavioural change to enhance adherence to prescribed treatments and to reduce risk factors associated with severe life threatening medical complications. This randomized controlled trial will examine the effectiveness of this intervention for people with ESKD and who live at home, undergoing either automated peritoneal dialysis or haemodialysis. This intervention may improve adherence to dialysis session times; fluid and dietary intake, diet and taking prescribed medications.
