Cycling exercise for chronic kidney disease
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special type of cycling exercise (eccentric cycling) is safe and helpful for people with moderate to severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) or who are on dialysis. The goal is to improve fitness and overall health.

This study tests if combining exercise with blood flow restriction training (BFRT) is safe and helpful for healthy adults and people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It aims to improve strength and health without heavy weights.
This trial studies whether high-intensity physical exercise helps people with chronic kidney disease, including those on dialysis. It aims to improve health and physical function.
This study tests how the body’s blood-pressure control responds to exercise in people with chronic kidney disease (and some transplant recipients), compared with people without kidney disease. It may help researchers learn safer ways to exercise and manage blood pressure for people with kidney disease.
This study compares two types of exercise training—low-oxygen (hypoxic) and regular (aerobic)—to see which one may be better for people with chronic kidney disease stage 3. If you join, you will be assigned to one of these training groups and will exercise under supervision.
This study tests whether doing aerobic exercise during dialysis sessions can help people with chronic kidney disease feel better and improve their health. If you are on dialysis and are able to exercise, you might benefit from this program.
This study tests whether a personalized exercise program can help adults over 55 with chronic kidney disease regain strength and mobility after a hospital stay.
