简要总结
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of cycling at mild to moderate intensity during hemodialysis treatment on cardiovascular function in a crossover design.
详细描述
Patients with kidney failure requiring hemodialysis (HD) treatment die at excessively high rates, despite advances in HD techniques and pharmacological therapies. This indicates additional therapeutic strategies are needed. Intradialytic exercise (IDEX, exercise during HD treatment) represents a low-cost, easy to administer treatment strategy that could potentially improve cardiovascular function, physical function and quality of life. However, nephrologists rarely counsel their patients to increase their physical activity levels or to exercise during HD treatment, in part due to a lack of understanding of IDEX knowledge.
Providing more robust evidence for the safety and effectiveness of IDEX, as well as evaluating the impact of exercising early vs late in the treatment, could help improve adoption of exercise training as a standard practice in HD clinics.
Therefore, investigators plan to examine the impact of IDEX and its timing during treatment (1st vs 3rd hour) on blood pressure and adverse symptoms in HD patients. The proposed study also includes various cardiovascular measures to allow deeper mechanistic understanding of cardiovascular physiology with IDEX. Such understanding will significantly advance the field and lead to improved therapeutic approaches, including exercise training, which may help mediate the deleterious effects of renal failure.

结局指标
主要结局
Serial change in brachial blood pressure (mmHg) from start to end of a dialysis treatment
时间窗: Every 15 minutes throughout each dialysis treatment (approximately 4 hours)
Systolic and diastolic blood pressure will be measured using an automated blood pressure cuff attached to the clinic dialysis machine
Changes in cardiac output (mL/min) measured by thoracic impedance technique
时间窗: Continous throughout a dialysis treatment (approximately 4 hours)
Cardiac output will be estimated continuously using thoracic impedance with electrodes placed around the chest.
次要结局
- Hypotensive event assessment measured by a symptom questionnaire(Throughout and up to 5 hours after completion of a dialysis treatment)
- Changes in total peripheral resistance estimated by peripheral blood pressure via a finger plethysmography and cardiac output via thoracic impedance (Task Force Monitor)(Continuous throughout each dialysis treatment (approximately 4 hours) for three dialysis sessions that are separated by a week)
