WCN25-2257 THE EFFECTIVENESS OF DIETARY INTERVENTION IN ALLEVIATING DEPRESSION IN PATIENTS ON MAINTENANCE HEMODIALYSIS

after starting treatment to accept one additional treatment per week, and a 14% survival benefit two years after starting treatment to prevent a halving of their capability.No differences in the trade-offs made by patients and their family members reached the threshold for statistical significance (Table 2).Conclusions: Stated preferences indicated participants favoured higher survival probabilities, but only if their capability was preserved and the frequency of care was acceptable.Location of care did not appear to be valued.We found no evidence to support our hypothesis that family members would make quantitatively different trade-offs from patients.Findings thus far do not support the concept that family members favour more active treatments because of stronger relative preferences for survival.Analyses accounting for clinical and sociodemographic factors are underway to examine whether subgroups of patients, family members, or dyads exhibit different preferencesthis may unveil patterns indecipherable in these 'average' findings.We will also be able to compare the preferences of this patient group with approximately 200 patient participants who did not recruit a family member.Further mixed-methods research will explore if and how preferences change with time and disease progression, and how stated preferences relate to treatment choice.I have no potential conflict of interest to disclose.I did not use generative AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process.
