The aim of this systematic review is to investigate the effectiveness of different self-management training programs applied to dialysis patients. During the literature review, the flow chart of preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis protocols (PRISMA-P) was utilized. The review was limited by the year. All studies in English were screened in the databases "Ulakbim National Database, Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, Web of Science, Medline, EBSCOhost, and Cochrane Library." Eleven studies, including nine randomized controlled and two quasi-experimental, were included in the review.

Background: The interactive media-based approach to community consultation and public disclosure (CC/PD), a key step when conducting exception from informed consent (EFIC) clinical trials, is intended to be completed in 4 months. This analysis characterizes the process, from initiation of CC/PD activities to institutional review board approval, to better understand the barriers and how these can be mitigated.
Methods: This is a retrospective post hoc analysis of data collected as part of the CC/PD campaigns conducted for a large trial involving up to 90 trauma centers in the United States.
