Summary

This study tests a digital mindfulness app called Calm Health in 26 adults with chronic kidney disease. Participants use the app for 6 weeks while wearing a wrist sensor to track sleep, activity, and heart rate. The goal is to see if the app is easy to use and if it helps reduce stress, anxiety, and improve quality of life.
