Chronic Kidney Disease Patient Journey study
Information for patients
LDA Research are an independent medical research company working on behalf of a pharmaceutical company to support a piece of market research with patients and caregivers of patients in the US who have been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The purpose of the study is to understand more about the patient experience of CKD and to gather your opinions about potential new medications.

For patients, the study involves an exciting weeklong online engagement, completed over 5 days at times convenient to the patients and taking around 60 minutes in total across the week. This will then be followed by a 60 minute online interview, again arranged at a time convenient to the patient.
For caregivers, the study involves a 30 minute pre-task to be completed prior to a 60 minute online interview, arranged at a time convenient to the caregiver.
All answers are strictly confidential and the study is non-promotional; anonymity will be kept throughout. Patient names will not be revealed to our client and will not be made available publicly, so patients can feel free to speak their minds.
Patients will be paid $200 for their time completing both parts of the study (the 60 minute online platform and then the 60 minute interview). Caregivers will be paid $150 for their time completing both parts of the study (the 30 minute pre-task and the 60 minute interview). Payment will only be made for full completion of both parts of the study. Payment is made via Amazon e-voucher or as a direct bank transfer, whichever is your preference, within 15 working days of receipt of your payment details following your interview.
The research has been designed in accordance with MRS and BHBIA standards and participants’ personal data will be protected under the GDPR and no personal identifiable data will be shared with the sponsoring client.
For anyone interested in participating, please use the link below to complete some brief screening questions to ensure that the study is suitable for you or contact Rachel Barnes at LDA Research (rachel.barnes@ldaresearch.com):
