Effect of Strength and Conditioning Training on Functional Performance in Children With Chronic Kidney Disease

December 10, 2022 updated by: Amira Mahmoud Abd-elmonem, Cairo University
Despite the benefits of physical rehabilitation among adults and children with chronic illness, they avoid to engage in different physical activities especially pediatric population. Most of the children with Chronic kidney disease receive their medical treatment and follow-up with no change of their functional performance. We still lack the evidence of plyometric exercises in pediatric population with Chronic kidney disease . Therefore, the primary aim of this study is to explore the effects of strength and conditioning training in the form of plyometric exercises on balance and muscle strength in children with Chronic kidney disease .

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Experimental group
traditional medical treatment and regular follow-up
Each session starts with a 5-minute warm-up of flexibility exercises (active range motion and stretching exercises).The main plyometric exercise set will be applied for 20-30 minutes and consisted of 10 exercises directed at the lower body that gradually progress by increasing the set/repetition number in two exercise blocks, each continue for 1 month .The cool down period is 5 minutes and includes walking at self-preferred speed and static stretches of the major muscle groups.
Other: control group
traditional medical treatment and regular follow-up
