This study tests whether low-level laser therapy (a painless light treatment) helps the new blood vessel connection (fistula) mature faster in people with advanced kidney disease who need hemodialysis. It compares this to a standard handgrip exercise program.
This study tests whether aerobic exercise during dialysis sessions improves your health. If you join, you would do light exercises while receiving dialysis treatment, and the researchers will see if it helps you feel stronger or more energetic.
This study tests if listening to music during hemodialysis sessions helps patients feel better. If you are on dialysis and can communicate verbally, you may be able to join.
This trial tests whether laser acupuncture can help lower high blood pressure in people who are on hemodialysis. If you are on dialysis and have high blood pressure, this treatment may offer a needle-free way to help manage it.
This study tests if applying cold therapy (cryotherapy) to the access site before needle insertion can reduce pain during hemodialysis. If you are on dialysis and have an arteriovenous fistula, this might help make your treatment more comfortable.
This trial tests whether a relaxation technique called autogenic training can help people on hemodialysis feel better. You will learn simple mental exercises to calm your body during dialysis sessions.
