The Effects of Intradialytic Exercise in Hemodiafiltration Patients

July 24, 2018 updated by: Khajohn Tiranathanagul, Chulalongkorn University

The Effects of Intradialytic Exercise on Daily Physical Activity in Patients Undergoing Long-term High-efficiency Online Hemodiafiltration

Low physical activity is associated with in hemodialysis and hemodiafiltration (HDF) patients. Previous studies showed the benefits of intradialytic exercise for improvement of physical fitness and hemodialysis adequacy. However, the effect of intradialytic exercise on physical activity has not been explored. This current open-labelled randomized controlled trial is conducted in HDF patients to determine the effect of intradialytic exercise program for 6 months on daily physical activity measured by tri-axial accelerometer (wearable device).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The study is an open-labelled randomized controlled trial which compare the changes of daily physical activity measured by tri-axial accelerometer (wearable device) between the HDF patients in intradialytic exercise group and control during the 6-month period. After inclusion in to the study, all of the participants will be evaluated before randomized. The investigators will prescribe the exercise program for each participant in the exercise group. The exercise program use intradialytic cycling which will be gradually increased to at least 30 minutes with moderate intensity. The participants in control group will receive dialysis as usual without intradialytic exercise prescription. The participants will go on the program for at least 6-months period. In each session, any adverse event or side effect will be reported.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Intradialytic exercise group
