Interactive e-learning modules are increasingly being used to educate nurses about preventing and detecting chronic kidney disease (CKD). These modules aim to improve knowledge, screening practices, skills, and self-management behaviors. This Delphi study aims to provide a prioritized list of strategies, content, and delivery methods to guide future implementation efforts and improve primary and secondary prevention of conservative CKD care in Syria.
A second-around Delphi study was performed using the input of 15 nephrologists involved in education and clinical practice. In the first round, we identified several potential strategies for CKD prevention education. However, consensus was not reached on all of them. We modified and refined these strategies based on the nephrologists' opinions. We asked them to re-evaluate and re-rank these modified strategies in the second round. Experts use predefined statements to score the effectiveness of CKD prevention strategies and delivery methods based on existing best practices specified in clinical guidelines, systematic reviews, and research studies. Descriptive statistics such as the median, interquartile range (IQR), and percentage agreement are used to assess consensus. Inferential statistics were used to measure participant agreement using Kendall's coefficient, and for stability between rounds, the Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used.
We identified (9 primary and 32 secondary strategies) of CKD prevention and unique evidence-based CKD strategies to implement within Syria and limited resource areas. Three strategies were deleted as not feasible and related to the Syrian context, and nine strategies were modified depending on experts' comments on rationale and suggestions related to culture availability and cost-effectiveness. We added one strategy to replace the Genetic screening strategies with early and regular screening for high-risk populations. Challenges to implementing evidence-based CKD strategies seem to exist in professional, organizational, and external contexts, which should all be considered to increase implementation success within limited resource areas such as Syria.
By synthesizing international and local nephrologists to fit with Syrian contextual realities, this study offers actionable strategies to strengthen CKD prevention in resource-limited settings like Syria. Prioritizing cost-effective tools, culturally adapted education, offline modules, Arabic translations, and nurse-friendly protocols provides a blueprint for similar conflict-affected regions.
