DaVita Inc., the El Segundo-based provider of kidney dialysis centers, has introduced an Internet tool designed to provide education about the different types if dialysis the company offers.
Called "Treatment Evaluator," the online tool also encourage patients to communicate with their nephrologist on treatment options to fit certain lifestyles.
You can reach the website by going to http://www.davita.com and clicking on
"Tools."
The screen walks patients through an 18-question quiz to find out which type of treatment is a potential fit based on their answers.
The online quiz asks questions about a patient's treatment preferences, home
and work responsibilities, and lifestyle choices. Treatment Evaluator then provides an
overview of three potentially compatible modalities, and how each may benefit a
patient's lifestyle.
