Breathing feedback and muscle training for kidney disease
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding breathing exercises with visual feedback to a muscle-strengthening program helps people with chronic kidney disease. It may improve breathing and overall physical strength.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must have a diagnosis of chronic kidney disease (any stage)
- You must be medically stable, with no urgent health problems in the past month

This study tests a breathing exercise (inspiratory muscle training) that you do during your regular hemodialysis sessions. It may help strengthen your breathing muscles and improve your overall well-being.
This study tests whether training your breathing muscles can improve health in people with chronic kidney disease (stage 3–4). It may help how your body handles daily activity and circulation-related measurements, compared with usual care.
This study tests a breathing exercise program done during dialysis sessions. It may help you feel stronger and do daily activities more easily.
This study tests whether breathing muscle training, added to regular heart rehab, can improve how well people with heart failure do day-to-day. It also compares results with healthy volunteers who do not have certain health problems.
This study compares two types of exercise training—low-oxygen (hypoxic) and regular (aerobic)—to see which one may be better for people with chronic kidney disease stage 3. If you join, you will be assigned to one of these training groups and will exercise under supervision.
This study tests a program to help people with a breathing pattern disorder (dysfunctional breathing) improve how their muscles work to make breathing easier. It may be a good fit if you have had trouble breathing for at least 6 months and are not currently receiving treatment for this condition.
