The study has the aim to develop and evaluate an online screening tool to detect psychological distress and barriers for adopting and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, as well as an E-coach treatment program to eliminate those barriers and promote facilitators for healthy life style behavior among patients with chronic kidney disease.
