NorWest Mobile Diabetes and Kidney Screening and Intervention Project Cindy Peters Primary Care Nurse
Interprofessional and Intersectoral partnerships
Aims of FINISHED (First Nations Community Based Screening to Improve Kidney Health and Prevent Dialysis) Partnership between the Diabetes Integration Project and Manitoba Renal Program Goal: To improve the health of First Nations communities though screening and treatment of kidney disease to prevent kidney failure requiring dialysis. 1. Screen for kidney disease in high risk, underserviced communities Instant, direct feedback to clients on level of risk 2. Refer clients at risk to appropriate treatments 3. Enter risk scores and information into the electronic Kidney Health record. 4. Use project results to convince MB Health and Health Canada that screening should be permanently funded
Aims of NorWest Project Through screen/triage/treat clinics identify: Individuals at risk for developing diabetes, hypertension or kidney disease Individuals with diabetes who may not have been screened for complications 5 year kidney failure risk prediction To provide follow up to those with risk factors (connect to primary care/chronic disease team, primary care provider, specialty care, other supports)

Rapid testing = 6-12 min Point of Care Testing & Instant Risk Prediction Finger prick for blood and small urine sample egfr, Ca, PO4, T-CO2, Albumin, Urine ACR, HgbA1C Real time tablet-based data entry custom app for this project Equipment undergoes quality assurance process each day to ensure precision and accuracy Mobile Chemistry Analyzer A1C/ACR Analyzer
Rationale MB has among the highest rate of kidney failure in all of Canada Screening general population is not recommended Focus on hard to reach high risk population groups (targeted screening) Prevent dialysis (determine 5 year risk prediction) Increase access to supports (primary health care)
At the screen/triage/treat clinics we will Obtain informed consent, complete health questionnaire Measure blood pressure (6 readings) Finger prick blood sample Urine sample Results are available within about 15 minutes (usually will spend about 30 45 minutes to complete entire process) Education provided based on results Classified according to kidney disease risk level (4 categories of risk) Letters sent to primary care provider if applicable (if blood sugar or blood pressure elevated or kidney risk score indicates requires follow up Referral made to nephrology(kidney specialist)depending on risk level
Screening Blood Pressure egfr, Ca, PO4, HCO3, albumin Urine ACR HbA1c Risk Prediction No Current Risk BP <160/90 egfr > 60 ACR = < 3.0 HgA1c <7% and No known DM Low Risk egfr <60 and 1-3% risk of kidney failure over 5 yr OR BP>160/90 OR HgA1c>7% OR 3.0 > ACR > 100 Intermediate Risk 3-10%risk of kidney failure over 5 yr OR 100 < ACR < 200 High Risk >10%/ 5 yr risk of kidney failure OR ACR > 200 Treatment Lifestyle counseling Diet and Exercise Treatment Lifestyle counseling Diet and exercise Letter to primary care practitioner Flag for yearly rescreening Treatment Lifestyle counseling Diet and exercise Arrange referral to MRP for evaluation by a nephrologist Treatment Lifestyle counseling Arrange urgent referral to the MRP for detailed evaluation by a nephrologist & team

Some categories may not sum to 100% due to rounding. HgbA1C: Glycated Hemoglobin, SBP: Systolic Blood Pressure, DBP: Diastolic Blood Pressure. The criteria for determination of kidney failure risk are presented in Item S1.
Findings Further extrapolation of data from Manitoba Centre for Health Policy (MCHP) is underway Data analysis will be collated from a variety of databases including income, education, billing data, laboratory data as well as other social complexity measures Phase 2 focus on children, youth and families with risk factors
