About this study

In plain language

This study tests whether team-based care using medicine, talk therapy called cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), or both can improve pain, tiredness, or depression. It is for adults who have had hemodialysis, a treatment that filters the blood, three times a week for more than 3 months.

The goal of this study is to learn if a collaborative care intervention of pharmaco-therapy and/or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), delivered in a real-world setting, improves symptoms of pain, fatigue and/or depression.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
