Registration Number
NCT06261372
Lead Sponsor
Ningbo Medical Center Lihuili Hospital
Brief Summary

To study the effect of mindfulness meditation combined with progressive muscle relaxation training on clinical efficacy and quality of life in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients with sarcopenia. Eligible sarcopenic patients in our hospital were randomly assigned to a control group (n = 24) and an intervention group (n = 25). The control group received conventional dialysis treatment, while the intervention group received mindfulness meditation combined with progressive muscle relaxation training during the interdialysis period in addition to conventional dialysis treatment. The effect of the intervention was evaluated after 12 weeks.To observe whether the combined intervention training can improve the motor ability and quality of life of patients with sarcopenia in a short period of time.
