Breathing muscle training during dialysis to improve daily function
Part of Kidney & urinary, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a breathing exercise program done during dialysis sessions. It may help you feel stronger and do daily activities more easily.

- You have been on hemodialysis for at least 6 months
- Your dialysis sessions are 4 hours long, 3 days a week
- You have not had a kidney transplant
- You can sit, stand, and walk on your own
- You are willing to take part in the study
