Exercise during dialysis with blood flow restriction
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether doing gentle exercise during dialysis with a special cuff that partly limits blood flow can help people on dialysis get stronger and feel better. It might be a good fit if you are on dialysis, not already exercising regularly, and have no serious health conditions that make exercise risky.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
