Physical Exercise in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease in Hemodialysis (Pehedal-ESKD) (Pehedal-ESKD)

14 septembre 2026 mis à jour par: Ricerca Nefrocenter

Physical Exercise in Hemodialysis Patients in End Stage Kidney Disease

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether different types of exercise performed during hemodialysis are safe, well tolerated, and beneficial for adults receiving maintenance hemodialysis. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Are aerobic exercise using a cycle ergometer and resistance exercise using elastic bands well tolerated during hemodialysis?
  • Do these exercise programs improve physical function, body composition, quality of life, and dialysis-related outcomes compared with standard care?

Researchers will compare aerobic exercise, resistance exercise, and standard hemodialysis care to evaluate differences in tolerance and health outcomes.

Participants will:

  • Be assigned to one of three groups: cycle ergometer exercise, elastic-band resistance exercise, or standard care.
  • Attend hemodialysis sessions as scheduled.
  • Complete physical performance and body composition assessments at baseline and after 6 months.
  • Complete questionnaires about health and quality of life.

The results of this study may help identify effective exercise strategies to improve health and well-being in people receiving long-term hemodialysis treatment.

Armes et Interventions

Groupe de participants / Bras
Intervention / Traitement
Comparateur actif: Cycle ergometer
Participants performed supervised intradialytic aerobic exercise using a cycle ergometer during the first 2 hours of hemodialysis sessions. Exercise was conducted three times per week for a total of 150 minutes per week at moderate intensity, corresponding to a Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion of 12-13. Training sessions were supervised by qualified exercise professionals and monitored by dialysis nurses to ensure safety and adherence.

Sessions were supervised by exercise professionals and monitored by dialysis nurses to ensure safety and adherence.
Comparateur actif: Elastic band resistance training
Participants performed supervised intradialytic resistance exercise using progressive color-coded elastic bands during the first 2 hours of hemodialysis sessions. Training was conducted three times per week for a total of 150 minutes per week at moderate intensity and targeted both upper and lower limbs. Resistance was progressively adjusted according to individual tolerance and correct exercise execution. Sessions were supervised by exercise professionals and monitored by dialysis nurses.

Resistance levels were progressively adjusted according to individual tolerance and proper exercise execution.
Aucune intervention: Control
Participants received standard hemodialysis care and continued their usual activities during dialysis sessions without participation in a structured intradialytic exercise program. Clinical assessments and follow-up evaluations were performed according to the study protocol.

Que mesure l'étude ?

Principaux critères de jugement

Mesure des résultats
Description de la mesure
Délai
Incidence of intradialytic intolerance and hemodynamic instability
Délai: Baseline to 6 months
Exercise tolerability will be evaluated through the incidence of intradialytic intolerance events and the maintenance of hemodynamic stability during hemodialysis sessions. Hemodynamic monitoring will include systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, and heart rate measured before, during, and after exercise sessions. Clinical signs and symptoms of exercise intolerance, including hypotension, dizziness, muscle cramps, nausea, premature interruption of exercise, or other adverse events occurring during dialysis, will be recorded. Outcomes will be compared among cycle ergometer exercise, elastic-band resistance training, and combined exercise programs to assess the relative tolerability and safety of each intervention.
