Measuring tiredness after dialysis to improve recovery
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at how tired you feel after dialysis sessions. Researchers will use simple questionnaires to measure your fatigue and understand what factors might make it better or worse, with the goal of improving your recovery after treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be on hemodialysis for kidney failure, 3 times a week, for about 4 hours each time.
- You must be 20 years of age or older.
- You must have been on dialysis for more than 3 months.
- Your health must be stable, and you should be able to get to the dialysis center on your own.
- You cannot have serious heart or brain disease, mental illness, recent surgery or infection, cancer, pregnancy, or severe mobility problems.

This study tests whether foot reflexology (a type of foot massage) or progressive muscle relaxation (a technique where you tense and relax muscles) can help reduce fatigue in people on hemodialysis. It aims to find a non-drug way to improve tiredness.
This study tests a simple program that combines muscle relaxation exercises and walking to help reduce fatigue in people with end-stage kidney disease who are on dialysis. You'll receive text messages to guide you and track your progress.
This trial compares two types of dialysis (hemodiafiltration and standard hemodialysis) to see which works better for older adults with kidney failure. You may be eligible if you are over 84, have been on dialysis for at least 3 months, and are generally healthy enough to participate.
This study tests different lengths of exercise during dialysis sessions to see if they improve dialysis effectiveness, reduce fatigue and depression, and boost strength and quality of life. It could help you feel better and get more out of your dialysis treatments.
This study looks at how fluid intake after each hemodialysis treatment affects your health. It may help find safer, easier guidance on how much to drink between treatments.
This study tests whether a relaxation technique called autogenic training (a type of self-guided relaxation) can help people on dialysis feel better. It focuses on stress reduction, which may improve your overall well-being.
