简要总结
This randomized controlled trial investigates the effect of Intradialytic Stretching Exercises on muscle cramps and fatigue in hemodialysis patients at a tertiary care hospital in Bhopal. A total of 60 patients are randomly assigned to experimental (exercise) and control (routine care) groups using the SNOSE method. The intervention includes structured stretching exercises (e.g., Ankle Dorsiflexion, Hamstring Stretch) performed for 20 minutes during dialysis under supervision. Muscle cramps are assessed using a self-structured Muscle Cramp Questionnaire, and fatigue is measured using the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS). Statistical analysis includes t-tests, Chi-square tests, and ANOVA to evaluate the intervention’s effectiveness.
