Continuous Long-Term Physical Activity Monitoring in Hemodialysis Patients

Abstract: Background: Physical inactivity is common in patients receiving hemodialysis, but activity patterns throughout the day and in relation to dialysis are largely unknown. This knowledge gap can be addressed by long-term, continuous activity monitoring, but this has not been attempted and may not be acceptable to dialysis patients.
