About this study

Official title: Hemodialysis Health Management Model - the Application of Wearable Devices, Exercise and Nutritional Intervention

Aim: By application of wearable devices and health management platform to strengthen physical activity and improved life quality in hemodialysis patients.

Read the detailed description

Background: End stage renal disease (ESRD) is a global public health issue. The dialysis therapy brings huge economic burden to many countries. If patients are able to monitor their lifestyle, it not only promotes health, but also reduces the cost of health care.

Aim: By application of wearable devices and health management platform to strengthen physical activity and improved life quality in hemodialysis patients.

Material and Methods: The investigators plan to recruit 30 CKD patients as trial subjects for intervention. The intervention included wearable devices and health management platform for 24 weeks. Patients record their own diet diary by a smartphone application, and their exercise-related data are collected by wearable devices. Then, all the collected information will be upload to health management platform. The investigators compare physical and laboratory examinations before and after the intervention.

What participants receive

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

  • Health platformBehavioural

    Each participant was provided with a wearable device (a Heart Rate Smart Wristband, GSH405-B6, Golden Smart Home Technology Corporation). Each participant downloaded an app (WowGoHealth app) to connect with the health management platform (GSH AI health platform). Participants' exercise-related data, including number of steps walked, distance, consumed calories, and heart rate, were collected by the wearable devices. All participants were taught to record a dietary diary (taking photos of meals) using a smartphone application. All collected information was uploaded to the health management platform. For the intervention group, we encouraged exercise including an 18-minutes calisthenics made by the Health Promotion Administration, Ministry of Health and Welfare (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3xJW-b2tZY).

  • Social mediaBehavioural

    We built a LINE group to inspire the intervention group.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change of sit-to-stand-10 (STS-10)

    time to complete 10 sit-to-stand cycles

    Measured: baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12, week 16 and week 24

  2. Change of sit-to-stand-60 (STS-60)

    the number of repetitions of sit-to-stand cycles achieved in 60 seconds

    Measured: baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12, week 16 and week 24

  3. Change of 6-minute walking distance (6MWT)

    the distance the participants walk as fast as they could for 6 minutes on a flat 30-meter track

    Measured: baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12, week 16 and week 24

  4. Change of hand grip strength

    the strength of hand drip measured by a dynamometer

    Measured: baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12, week 16 and week 24

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change of KDQOL-SF

    Quality of life measured by the KDQOL-SF (dialysis version)

    Measured: baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12, week 16 and week 24

  2. Change of subjective global assessment (SGA)

    subjective global assessment for nutritional status

    Measured: baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12, week 16 and week 24

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Health platform, Social media and Exercise training in people with Physical Inactivity and Nutritional Wasting, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jun 2024. 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 Taiwan. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change of sit-to-stand-10 (STS-10) (time frame: baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12, week 16 and week 24). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Jun 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
