Abstract: A systematic assessment was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of digital health technology interventions on anxiety, depression, and treatment adherence in maintenance hemodialysis patients. A computerized search of 10 databases of randomized controlled trials of digital health technologies on anxiety, depression, and treatment adherence in maintenance hemodialysis patients was conducted for the period from database construction to December 5, 2024, and a meta‐analysis of the included literature was performed using RevMan 5.4 and Stata 15.0 software to evaluate the level of evidence‐based on GRADE. A total of 13 papers were included with 1063 maintenance hemodialysis patients. Meta‐analysis results showed that digital health technology could reduce anxiety and depression and improve treatment adherence of maintenance hemodialysis patients. Digital health technology has a positive effect on anxiety, depression, and treatment adherence in maintenance hemodialysis patients. However, due to the limitations of the quality and quantity of included studies, as well as the heterogeneity of the findings, further validation of the results is necessary through the inclusion of more high‐quality studies.
