Effects of Exercise Training during Hemodialysis
Abstract
Fourteen maintenance hemodialysis patients volunteered to participate in a 6-month program of exercise training. The exercise was performed on a stationary bicycle during the hemodialysis treatment. Six maintenance hemodialysis patients served as control without exercise training. Exercising patients participated in 91% of all possible exercise sessions. The exercise group showed a significant (23%) increase in maximal oxygen consumption over the 6 months. No change in exercise capacity resulted in the control group. Five of eight hypertensive patients in the exercise group decreased or discontinued antihypertensive medications. No changes occurred in hematocrit or lipid profiles in either group. We conclude that exercise training during the hemodialysis treatment is technically feasible and safe for appropriately screened patients and will increase exercise capacity, and in some patients improve blood pressure control. Exercise during dialysis also improves compliance to regular exercise and facilitates supervised exercise sessions, which are desirable in this patient group.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
