Exercise program for people on dialysis
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies whether a structured exercise program (using Nordic walking poles) is safe and helpful for adults with end-stage kidney disease who are on dialysis. You may be eligible if you can do the exercise safely and are able to consent.
