Summary

This study tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) program can help people on dialysis feel less anxious and cope better with stress. About 60 adults will use personalized relaxation techniques guided by AI during their dialysis sessions. Researchers will measure changes in anxiety and coping skills using surveys and interviews.
