Home-based vs Intradialysis Exercise Guided by Nursing Staff (HoBIDnurse)

January 28, 2021 updated by: Eva Segura Ortí, Cardenal Herrera University

Home-based vs Intradialysis Exercise Program Guided by Nursing Staff

Participants will be randomized either to home-based exercise or to intradialysis exercise guided by nurses of the renal unit. The programs will last 16 weeks. The intradialysis exercise consists of combined aerobic and resistance training exercise. The home-based exercise consists of resistance exercise and walking.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

During 16 weeks one group will follow an intradialysis exercise program. The exercise program consists of strengthening exercises for lower limbs and for the upper limb free of fistula. The exercise program includes isotonic exercises for quadriceps, triceps surae, psoas, glutei, and brachial biceps; and isometric exercises for hip adductors and hamstrings. Elastic bands will be used to apply resistance. Progression will be achieved by increasing from 1 set of 10 repetitions until 3 sets of 15 repetitions. This first part of the exercise session will last no more than 30 minutes. The program will also include aerobic exercise (cycling) for up to 30 minutes. Intensity will adapted through the duration of the study so that the participant feel the exercise from hard to somewhat hard (13 to 15 at the rate of perceived exertion 6 to 20). Time and resistance will be adapted progressively. After an initial training period by a physiotherapist, the nursing staff will be responsible for monitoring and implementing the program.

The other group will follow a home-based program. A booklet with resistance exercise and recommendation of walking between exercises will be provided. An initial training phase will be applied by the physiotherapists from the rehabilitation department.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Intradialysis exercise guided by nursing staff
During 16 weeks subjects will exercise during the hemodialysis session, the exercise will include both aerobic and resistance training. Guidance will be provided by nursing staff
Combined exercise, aerobic and resistance training, implemented by nursing staff
Active Comparator: Home-based exercise program
During 16 weeks subjects will exercise on their own at home. A booklet will be provided, with a diary. Instructions to do resistance exercise with intervals of walking will be provided. Initial training will be provided by physiotherapy staff from the hospital.
