Interdialytic Resistance Exercises in with Chronic Kidney Diseases

Fifty chronic kidney disease patients' ages will range from 40 to 55 years. They will be selected from the dialysis unit. received intra-dialytic combined exercise program for 8 weeks(3 sessions/week), with their medical treatment.

This study is active but is not currently recruiting participants.

Key information

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Fifty patients with CKD, are on hemodialysis for longer than threemonths 3 sessions/ week.
  • Theirageswillrangefrom40 to 55yearsold.
  • Their body mass index is more than 18.5 and less than 29.9 %.

3-All patients have hemodynamic stability over the month before beginning the program.

Exclusion criteria

  • 1. Severe Chest diseases(either obstructive or restrictive). 2. Clinical signs of a severe cardiac event.(eg, severe atherosclerosis, congestive heart failure), 3. Severepsychiatricorcognitiveimpairment,whounabletofollowcomment. 4. Neurological disorders affecting respiratory muscles or any muscular dystrophies(cervical disc or bulge).
  • Patients with severe self-limiting illness (e.g., cancer). 6. peripheral artery disease in lower extremities. 7. Systolic blood pressure < 180 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure more than 105 mmHg, or heart rate above 120 bpm during dialysis.
  • Patient with uncontrolled- diabetes.

Treatment and study plan

intra-dialytic exercise program associated with medical treatment

Procedure
  • Stretch for pectorals and calf muscles: Two sets - 3 times/ set.
  • Breathing exercises associated with upper limb movement.
  • Resistive exercise for hip abductors, hip flexors, and calf muscles by using theraband.
  • Sit to stand strengthening exercises: -

inter-dialytic combined exercise program with their medications

Procedure

receive the inter-dialytic combined exercise program with their medications. Like the study group except for diaphragmatic breathing instead of breathing with upper limb exercise.

Primary outcomes

  1. Measuring quadriceps and cuff muscles power

    Time frame: pre intervention and re assessed after 2 months of treatment

    From sitting or lying positions the normal dialytic positions by handheld dynamometer

Secondary outcomes

  1. Kidney disease quality of life F

    Time frame: pre intervention and re assessed after 2 months of treatment

    Kidney disease quality of life questionnaire KDQoL-SF

  2. chest expansion

    Time frame: pre intervention and re assessed after 2 months of treatment

    From a standing position and comfortable clothes with relaxed shoulders and a straight back, the head will be aligned vertically. Putting the measuring tape around the armpits and closing the ends of the tape measurement not tightly nor loose, asking the patient to take deep breathing.

  3. Six-minute walk test

    Time frame: pre intervention and re assessed after 2 months of treatment

    Subjects will be instructed to walk from one end to the other of a 30-m hallway at their own pace while attempting to cover as much ground as possible in the allotted 6 min
