Older Kidney Patient Optimisation Pretransplant
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a kidney transplant-specific comprehensive geriatric assessment (KT-CGA) can improve the way older adults are assessed for kidney transplantation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is it feasible and acceptable to deliver a KT-CGA alongside routine transplant assessment in older adults with advanced kidney disease? What is the effect of KT-CGA on decision-making about transplant listing and on patient-reported outcomes such as quality of life and frailty? Researchers will compare participants who receive the KT-CGA plus usual care to those who receive usual care alone. Participants will: Continue with their usual transplant assessment process If randomised to the intervention group, also complete the KT-CGA (a structured set of questionnaires, short memory and function tests, and discussions about wellbeing and support needs, taking about 45-60 minutes)
