Design The study had a cross-sectional and between-subjects design. The independent variable was the diagnosis depression by the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI). The dependent variables were the HADS and BDI. methods All 130 patients with ESRD who were treated with haemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialyses (PD) in the Sint Lucas Andreas Hospital in Amsterdam were eligible for this study, and were asked to fill out both HADS and BDI. The outcomes of both rating scales were compared with the diagnosis major depressive episode based on the MINI, which was seen as the gold standard. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to choose optimal cutoff values. results Of 62 enrolled subjects, 21 (34%) were diagnosed with a depressive disorder. Optimal cutoff values were ≥ 12 (HADS) and ≥ 13 (BDI). Sensitivity was 81.0% (HADS) and 75.0% (BDI). Specificity was 90.2% for both. conclusions Both HADS and BDI are valid screening instruments for the diagnosis depression in ESRD patients but there is no statistical difference found between both rating scales.
