Benefits of Exercise Training during Hemodialysis Sessions: A Prospective Cohort Study

Abstract: Background: End-stage renal disease patients can be considered as ‘cardiovascular time bombs' due to their tremendous cardiovascular risk. Our study has determined the impact of 3 months of exercise training during dialysis on some of the cardiovascular risk factors (arterial stiffness, body composition and physical performance) in a chronic hemodialyzed population. Methods: The study group (n = 19) and control group (n = 16) of chronic hemodialysis patients from Timisoara, Romania, were enrolled in a prospect… Show more

“…However, the study was done in a relatively small number of patients at a single center. Another prospective interventional study suggests the role of arterial stiffness: Three months of exercise training during dialysis in 19 HD patients improved aortic PWV and increased skeletal muscle mass [23].…”

“…However, the effects of exercise training on arterial stiffness in elderly patient populations are contradictory [34][35][36][37][38]. This issue is further complicated by the heterogeneity among studies in modality, frequency and duration of exercise training, and in the assessment method for arterial stiffness.…”
