Summary: "This report attempts to fill an important gap in our knowledge of treatment experiences and outcomes of ESRD among Aboriginal peoples in Canada by exploring such factors as socio-demographic context, distance to receive treatment, co-existing health conditions, treatments received and treatment-related outcomes. By examining differences between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal patients, this report assesses whether disparities exist between these two groups and contributes to identifying ways to address the gaps"--P. 2.
