An Evaluation of Home Urinalysis Testing for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) Patients at Elevated Risk for Developing Lupus Nephritis: A Pilot Stage and Randomized Controlled Study

Brief description of study

The purpose of this study is to find out if at-home urine testing in between doctor’s visits is a feasible approach for lupus patients to find early evidence of kidney inflammation.

Following informed consent at their clinic visit, 18 participating patients will view the educational video, with available subtitles in all three languages (i.e., English, Spanish and Mandarin). The patient will have sufficient dipsticks to test the first morning void once weekly for a year (with weekly reminders via a text protocol) unless earlier intervention is required.
