简要总结
To investigate the course and diurnal change of fatigue symptoms and haemodialysis related symptoms in chronic haemodialysis patients, its relation to haemodialysis treatment and the association with other factors by implementing an ecological momentary assessment procedure incorporated in a webapplication.
详细描述
The course and diurnal change of fatigue symptoms in the daily life of chronic haemodialysis (HD) patients, its relation to haemodialysis treatment and the association with other factors such as mood, activities, location and social context will be evaluated during 7 consecutive days by using an ecological momentary assessment (EMA) procedure, incorporated into a webapplication. Using an EMA procedure will more accurately represent fatigue symptoms and its relation to other factors in the daily life of chronic HD patients compared to conventional measurement instruments (i.e. questionnaires evaluating fatigue over a period of a week or more, which are therefore liable to a recall bias).
