Why the study?
Indigenous populations face a disproportionately high burden of CVD and CKD, and a review protocol was needed to assess non-pharmacological interventions aimed at reducing these risks.
Do community-based non-pharmacological interventions reduce cardiovascular and kidney disease risk factors in remote dwelling Indigenous communities?

Does not alter clinical management in remote Indigenous communities; leaves open the effectiveness of community-based interventions pending review completion.
Do community-based non-pharmacological interventions reduce cardiovascular and kidney disease risk factors in remote dwelling Indigenous communities?
This protocol outlines a planned scoping review to evaluate the impact of non-pharmacological interventions on cardiovascular and kidney disease outcomes in remote Indigenous communities using the RE-AIM framework.
Okpechi et al. (2022) conducted a review in Cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. Community-based non-pharmacological interventions vs. Control group or baseline was evaluated on Changes in behavioral, clinical, and biochemical cardiovascular risk factors and kidney disease outcomes. Community-based non-pharmacological interventions for cardiovascular and kidney disease outcomes in remote Indigenous communities will be evaluated in this planned scoping review.
