Frailty in kidney transplant patients and kidney function
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at frailty (weakness and tiredness) in kidney transplant patients and how it relates to how well the transplanted kidney is working. It may help find ways to improve long-term transplant health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study follows patients with advanced kidney disease who are waiting for a transplant. It will check how physical frailty (weakness and slowness) changes over time and how patients feel, using online questionnaires and simple physical tests.
This study looks at how certain immune system markers, called inflammasomes, relate to frailty (physical weakness and vulnerability) in older adults who are candidates for kidney transplantation. The goal is to better understand these markers, which might help improve care for older transplant patients in the future.
This study tests whether a 12-week home exercise program (supervised by video calls) can help people who are frail feel stronger and healthier before a kidney transplant. You'll do exercises at home and connect with a trainer online.
This study is designed for older adults with advanced kidney disease who are being considered for a kidney transplant. It aims to improve how patients are optimised (made as healthy as possible) before the transplant surgery, which may help with recovery and overall outcomes.
This study tests whether a targeted exercise program can help people who are very weak due to kidney disease. If you are on dialysis, have advanced kidney disease, or have had a kidney transplant, this program may improve your strength and daily function.
This trial looks at whether “frailty” (how weak or vulnerable someone is) changes short- and long-term outcomes after surgery. It may help doctors better predict who could benefit from extra support before and after surgery.
