About this study

Official title: Effects of Whole-body Vibration Training on the Heart Rate Variability Cardiac in Kidney Transplantation: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Introduction: Renal transplantation represents the therapeutic mode with more durable treatment, greater cost-effectiveness, survival benefits and quality of life of the patients, however, with high cardiovascular mortality.

Objectives: To evaluate the acute and chronic effects on heart rate variability and the impact of chronic kidney disease on cardiorespiratory fitness in renal transplant recipients following a full-body Vibration training program.

Methods: It will be a blinded randomized clinical trial (patient, evaluator and statistician), controlled and endowed with secrecy of allocation, to be performed in the Cardiopulmonary Physiotherapy Laboratory of the Physiotherapy Department of the Federal University of Pernambuco. Renal transplant recipients will be recruited at the Nephrology outpatient clinic of the Hospital das Clínicas de Pernambuco, according to the following inclusion criteria: age between 18 and 59 years, who underwent transplantation at least one year before and present a stable transplant function through the level Of creatinine

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • whole-body vibration trainingOther

    Training on the Vibrating platform will be performed with the patients in the static position.The exercises will be performed in the first two weeks for 10 minutes consisting of 60 seconds of low intensity and 30 seconds of standing rest in the anatomical position. From the second week to the end of the twelfth week (24 sessions) will be performed 15 minutes corresponding being 60 seconds of high intensity interspersed with 30 seconds of rest standing in the anatomical position. In the second month, the patient should be well adapted to the stimuli of the platform keeping the frequency of 35Hz and the amplitude 4mm. Monitoring of blood pressure, heart rate and peripheral oxygen saturation should be done every 5 minutes.

whole-body vibrationExperimentalThe whole-body vibration training will be performed with the patients in the static position, feet apart at 20 cm, semi-squat with knees at 15º flexion and upper limbs slightly flexed and supported on the platform. The exercises will be performed, in the first two weeks, for 10 minutes consisting of 60 seconds of low intensity with 30 seconds of rest standing in the anatomical position.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing whole-body vibration training in people with Renal Transplant Recipients, run by Universidade Federal de Pernambuco at 1 site in Brazil.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact TUIRA O MAIA (81997160176, tuiraomaia@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

heart rate variability (time frame: three months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Apr 2017.
