✅NEW: Study in Indonesia, shows that 12 weeks of intradialytic aerobic exercise significantly improves dialysis adequacy and quality of life in end-stage kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis - adding to literature 🧘‍♀️🚲 🔗: shorturl.at/9ijmv

1/ 🚨 📢Hey #NephTwitter, today we will discuss an RCT on #hemodialysis (HD) patients 👉Let’s begin with a poll: do cognitive and physical training programs improve the functional capacity in patients on HD?

📢NEW: Physical activity is crucial for CKD patients, but access is limited. A review of digital interventions (apps, trackers) shows high acceptability but mixed health outcomes. More research needed. #CKD #DigitalHealth shorturl.at/q9nWM

🔍 Our findings show that the 10-item Physical Function (PF-10) questions of the SF-36 quality of life questionnaire may be a useful physical dysfunction and sarcopenia screening tool in patients on hemodialysis 📌 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38848807/ Journal of Renal Nutrition Int'l Society of Renal Nutrition and Metabolism Global Renal Exercise Network

🚨 New: Exercise interventions in CKD are gaining traction, but challenges remain—especially in non-dialysis-dependent CKD (NDD). This review dives into the benefits, barriers, and strategies to enhance exercise research and practice in CKD. 🌟 🔗: shorturl.at/fv4uw

This systematic review finds that the evidence overall suggests that full-body resistance exercise is likely to improve grip strength, and timed up and go test and sit to stand test performance, in patients with Stage 4 or 5 chronic kidney disease undergoing dialysis.
