About this study

Purpose: To examine the effects of core stabilization and aerobic exercises on dialysis adequacy, functionality level, and quality of life in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The secondary aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of intradialytic core stabilization and aerobic exercises in HD patients.

Materials and Methods: Patients who received hemodialysis treatment for 4 hours, 3 days a week were planned to be included in this randomized controlled study. Patients participating in the study will be randomly divided into 2 groups. Grup 1 was planned to be given core stabilization exercises during hemodialysis three times a week for eight weeks; Group 2 was planned to be given aerobic exercise during hemodialysis three times a week for eight weeks. It aimed to evaluate the patients in the weeks before the start of the treatment and the week after the end of the treatment. Personal information form for evaluation, dialysis adequacy, quality of life questionnaire-kidney disease quality of life-36, piper fatigue scale, hospital anxiety and depression scale (hads), Pittsburgh sleep scale, five times sit and stand test, 10 m walking test , tinetti balance and walking test, and 2-minute step test were planned to be used.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dialysis adequacy

    Dialysis adequacy is determined as the urea reduction rate (URR) and unitless Kt/V value. In calculating the Kt/V value; K-is the urea clearance coefficient of the dialyzer (ml/min), t refers to dialysis time (min), and V signifies the urea distribution volume (ml).

    Measured: one month

  2. Kidney Disease Quality of Life-36 (KDQOL-36)

    The KDQOL-36 is a measure of kidney disease-related quality of life that comprises four subscales: generic core [Physical Component Summary (PCS, 12 items) and Mental Component Summary (MCS, 12 items)]; Symptoms/Problems (12 items); Burden of Kidney Disease (4 items), and Effects of Kidney Disease (8 items).

    Measured: Two months

  3. Five times sit-to-stand test

    The Five-Times Sit to Stand Test measures one aspect of transfer skill. The test provides a method to quantify functional lower extremity strength and/or identify movement strategies a patient uses to complete transitional movements.

    Measured: Two months

  4. 2 Minute Step Test

    The test, known as the 2-minute step test (TMST), simply requires that tested individuals march in place as fast as possible for 2 minutes while lifting their knees to a height midway between their patella and iliac crest when standing.

    Measured: Two months

  5. 10 Metre Walk Test

    The 10 meter walk test is a performance measure used to assess walking speed in meters per second over a short distance. It can be employed to determine functional mobility, gait, and vestibular function.

    Measured: Two months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Piper Fatigue Scale

    The Piper Fatigue Scale (PFS) is one of the commonly used multidimensional fatigue measures and includes subdomains of behavioral, affective, sensory, and cognitive/mood attributes of fatigue.

    Measured: Two months

  2. Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)

    The HADS was developed to detect states of anxiety and depression in hospitalized patients. The measure was designed to exclude items that might conflate anxiety or depression with physical health problems.

    Measured: Two months

  3. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)

    PSQI is a self-rated questionnaire that assesses sleep quality and disturbances over a 1-month time interval.

    Measured: Two months

  4. Tinetti Gait and Balance Test

    The Tinetti assessment tool is an easily administered, task-oriented test that measures an adult's gait and balance abilities. To assess balance, the patient is seated in a firm, armless chair. stand next to the patient to evaluate the gait. The patient is asked to walk normally and then speed up.

    Measured: Two months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing exercıse in people with Hemodialysis Complication, run by Muş Alparslan University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 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 Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

Dialysis adequacy (time frame: one month). The study lists 5 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 4 Jun 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
