Kidney symptom management: Focus group

People with chronic kidney disease (CKD) often suffer from several symptoms at once, such as pain, itching and feeling extremely tired.

This project is looking to understand people’s opinions of using an electronic symptom management plan that helps people with CKD better manage their symptoms. Focus group discussion will also explore how certain groups of people might be effected and to identify any barriers to using the system.

It is being led by a team of researchers at The University of Manchester and is funded by Kidney Care UK.
