Preferences for digital health services among patients with chronic kidney disease: a discrete choice experiment

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study asked people in China what they want in digital health tools for kidney disease. It used a survey method to rank different features. The results show what patients prefer, but they do not prove that these tools will improve health. This helps doctors and policy makers design better apps and services.
