About this study

Official title: Interval Versus Continous Intradialytic Training on Muscla Quality Index and Functional Capacity in Hemodialysis Patients

The goal of this study is to find out the effect of interval versus continous intradialytic training on muscle quality index and functional capacity in Hemodialysis patients. The main question it aims to answer is:

Does interval versus continous intradialytic training have an effect on muscle quality index and functional capacity in hemodialysis patients? Patients will be assigned randomly by computerized block randomization into two groups:Group (A): 30 patients will participate in 8 weeks of aerobic exercise in the form of high intensity interval training (HIIT) intradialytic pedaling exercise plus hemodialysis (3 sessions per week).Group (B): 30 patients will participate in 8 weeks of aerobic exercise in the form of moderate intensity continous training (MICT) intradialytic pedaling exercise plus hemodialysis (3 sessions per week) . primary and secondary variables will be measured before starting treatment and after completion (after 2 months )

Read the detailed description

Individuals with CKD (both predialysis and ESRD) may be at greater risk of sarcopenia given the combined reductions in physical function, skeletal muscle performance and skeletal muscle mass.

Study include sixty male patients on hemodialysis for 1-3 years aged from 45 to 55 years old selected from hemodialysis unit at National Institute of Urology and Nephrology. Before starting treatment , patients will fill consent form and the study aims and procedure will be explained to each patient . study include Sixty male patients on hemodialysis for 1-3 years aged from 45 to 55 years old selected from hemodialysis unit at National Institute of Urology and Nephrology. Patients will be assigned randomly by computerized block randomization into two groups:Group (A): 30 patients will participate in 8 weeks of aerobic exercise in the form of high intensity interval training (HIIT) intradialytic pedaling exercise plus hemodialysis (3 sessions per week).Group (B): 30 patients will participate in 8 weeks of aerobic exercise in the form of moderate intensity continous training (MICT) intradialytic pedaling exercise plus hemodialysis (3 sessions per week) Karvonen formula will be used to calculate training heart rate THR= RHR+ (HRmax - RHR) 65%-80% AS HRmax = 220-Age patients of HIIT will perform aerobic exercise in the form of leg pedaling exercise in semi-supine position using leg ergometer at high intensity 85%-95% of HRpeak with 4 min of active breaks at an intensity of 60%-70% of HRpeak. . Exercise will be done at the first 2 hours of dialysis (to avoid dialysis hypotension episodes).

patients of MICT will perform aerobic exercise in the form of leg pedaling exercise in semi-supine position using leg ergometer at moderate intensity 50%-60% of HRpeak . Exercise will be done at the first 2 hours of dialysis (to avoid dialysis hypotension episodes).

primary and secondary variables will be measured before starting treatment and after completion (after 2 months )

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
High Intensity Interval Training Group (Group A)ExperimentalEach training session consist of three parts of 30 minutes: * Warm up (5 minutes) free active exercise of the lower extremities, * Training continued with three exercise intervals lasting 3 min each, at an exercise intensity of 85%-95% of HRpeak equalling 15-17 on the Borg scale. Each interval was separated by 4 min of active breaks at an intensity of 60%-70% of HRpeak. * Cool down (5 minutes) free exercise of lower extremities. Training program will last for 8 weeks with frequency 3times / week.

Moderate intensity continous training group (Group B)ExperimentalEach training session consist of three parts of 30 minutes: * Warm up (5 minutes) free active exercise of the lower extremities, * Training continued with cycling at low-to-moderate exercise intensity of 50%-60% of HRpeak, representing 11-13 on the Borg scale. * Cool down (5 minutes) free exercise of lower extremities. Training program will last for 8 weeks with frequency 3times / week.

What is being measured

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

  1. muscle quality index

    The MQI was quantified using a timed sit-to-stand test, body mass, and leg length to calculate a power index that is expressed in watts (W). The MQI was calculated as follows:

    QI (Watts) = ((Leg length×0.4) ×Bodymass×gravity×10) ∕ Time taken for (sit to stand 5 times) Body mass will be measured using a digital scale. Leg length will be taken using tape measure to measure the distance (in meters) from the greater trochanter of the femur to the lateral malleolus, measured from standing position . BY using a stopwatch, sit-to-stand time will be calculated as the time to stand from a seated position and return to sitting consecutively five times. The use of arms not allowed during the sit-to-stand test. Acceleration of gravity (9.8 m/s2).

    After measuring leg length, body mass and time for sit to stand, all these data will be written in the previous equation to calculate muscle quality index and expressed in watts (W).

    Measured: 2 months

  2. six minute walk test

    Six minute walk test (6MWT) to assess physical functional capacity (using stopwatch, colored tape to mark starting line and end line of corridor) Using a stopwatch, assess physical functional capability. The 6MWT will be conducted indoors along a 30 m long, level, straight, enclosed hallway, with the length of the corridor indicated with brightly coloured tape at the beginning and end lines. Subjects will be advised to walk as far as possible from end to end of the corridor without jogging or running, and to cover as much distance as feasible in the 6 minute time limit . This test was performed at the beginning of treatment and at the end of treatment program (8 weeks) to assess functional performance difference.

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Aerobic pedaling exercise in people with Hemodialysis Complication, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 8 inclusion and 10 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 26 Sep 2023. 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 Egypt. 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. 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?

muscle quality index (time frame: 2 months). The study lists 2 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 26 Sep 2023.
