Exercise During ESRD Works
Three-month endurance training was effective in patients with ESRD in improving both functional fitness and skeletal muscle properties.
Background
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have poor physical performance and reduced exercise capacity due to frequent haemodialysis treatments.
Results
The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of a three-month endurance training programme in patients with ESRD
Conclusions
The exercise programme described improves physical function significantly and can be integrated into a HD routine with a high long-term adherence.
