  • Title: An approach to addressing depression in patients with chronic kidney disease.
    Author: Finkelstein FO, Wuerth D, Finkelstein SH.
    Journal: Blood Purif; 2010; 29(2):121-4. PubMed ID: 20093816.
    Abstract:
    Depressive symptoms and clinical depression are commonly noted in patients with end-stage renal disease and chronic kidney disease (not on dialysis). This association is important since depressive symptoms have been associated with both an impaired quality of life and increased morbidity and mortality. It is, therefore, important to develop strategies to screen patients with chronic kidney disease for depression and to develop strategies to treat clinical depression in this group of patients.
