Exercise in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients (PDEX)

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Peritoneal Dialysis, Kidney Failure, Chronic

In brief

Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD) are physically inactive, resulting in poor physical function and reduced quality of life. The aim of this pilot trial was to test the study feasibility of a combined resistance and cardiovascular exercise program (recruitment and retention rates) and report adherence and adverse events. The intervention (I) group received monthly exercise physiologist consultations, exercise prescription (resistance and aerobic exercise program using exercise bands) and weekly phone calls over 12 weeks. Control (C) group received normal care. Feasibility outcomes were exercise adherence rates and adverse events. Secondary measures included physical function measures and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs)
