In this virtual live event, Shirin Sundar, PhD and Becky Wong, PharmD, MBA, discuss the high prevalence of major depressive disorder (MDD) among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
Major depressive disorder affects more than 260 million people worldwide1. The reported prevalence of depression in patients with chronic kidney disease ranges from 20-65%2. This webinar provides an overview of both MDD and CKD and discusses their overlap of symptomology.
