Summary

This study tested whether sleep hygiene education plus motivational interviewing can improve sleep and quality of life in people on hemodialysis. Forty patients were split into two groups: one received face-to-face sleep training plus four online motivational sessions over six weeks, the other only the training. The goal was to see if the added coaching boosted sleep hygiene, sleep quality, and overall well-being.
