- Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of intradialytic aerobic exercise on muscle capacity, functionality and motivation of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis.
The main question it aims to answer are:
• Is intradialytic aerobic exercise at moderate intensity effective in improving peripheral muscle function, functional status and motivation in patients with chronic kidney disease?
- Detailed Description
The progressive and irreversible advance of chronic kidney disease generates the systemic involvement of the organism and, consequently, the impairment of functionality and quality of life. Hemodialysis therapy is a strategy to increase survival and its long implementation time appears as a space for physiotherapeutic interventions in delaying functional impairment in these individuals. The objective will be to evaluate the effects of intradialytic aerobic exercise on muscle capacity, functionality and motivation of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis. Patients with chronic kidney disease who undergo hemodialysis at TR São José - Clínica de hemodialysis LTDA (São José/SC) will be evaluated. Patients will be randomized, via a convenience sample, into two groups: intradialytic aerobic exercise group and control group. Interventions will take place within the first two hours of hemodialysis, using a portable cycle ergometer. Intensity will be controlled by heart rate and BORG Perceived Exertion Index. The training, for both groups, will be three times a week, for a period of three months. The aerobic exercise intensity will be moderate, in the percentage of maximum heart rate from 55 to 74% and BORG 4 to 6. A portable cycle ergometer will be used. The evaluations will be in the baseline period, after each complete month and after six months of the end. There will be three days of assessments at the hemodialysis clinic prior to renal replacement therapy and seven days using a home device, following the sequence: baseline blood sample collection, anthropometric assessment, vital signs, BORG, spirometry, mean quadriceps thickness, capacity functional status (six-minute step test), cognitive status (Montreal Cognitive Assessment-BR), quality of life (Kidney Disease And Quality-Of-Life Short Form), sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), state motivational (Behavior Regulation Exercise Questionnaire - BREQ3), muscle strength and endurance and daily physical activity. The sample calculation will be performed a posteriori, with Gpower software, based on the variables of the six-minute step test and muscle resistance value. Data will be systematized in the Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 20.0. Initially, descriptive statistics will be performed. To characterize the sample, the following variables will be considered: age, gender, anthropometric data, spirometric parameters, body composition, urea and creatinine clearance, cognitive status. Data distribution will be evaluated using the Shapiro-Wilk test or a non-parametric analogue. To compare the response of the outcome variables between the groups, the ANOVA two-way test of repeated measures, or a non-parametric analogue, will be used. To verify relationships between numeric variables, Pearson's correlation coefficient or non-parametric analogue will be used. The significance level adopted for the statistical treatment will be 5% (p \< 0.05).

Group Intervention Description Training group Aerobic exercise Aerobic exercise training on moderate intensity.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method six minute step test 12 weeks A step 20 centimeters high will be used and the patient will be instructed to go up and down it as many times during the 6 minutes, according to free cadence and will be instructed not to use the upper limbs
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method index of self-determination and basic psychological needs 12 weeks The score varies from 1 to 5, with 1 being total disagreement and 5 total agreement for variables related to the link between competence and autonomy.
muscle strength 12 weeks measured by dynamometry, the records will be in newtons.
Daily life physical activity 12 weeks number of steps for seven days by triaxial accelerometer
Behavior Regulation Questionnaire for Physical Exercise 12 weeks The questionnaire ranges from 0 to 24 for self-regulation indices and 0 to 4 for each type of regulation, namely external, introjected, identified, integrated and intrinsic regulation
Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index 12 weeks The questionnaire quantifies sleep quality, calculated between seven skills. The final result varies from good sleep quality (0-4), poor sleep quality (5-10) and the presence of sleep disorders (above 10).
Montreal Cognitive Assessment 12 weeks 8 cognitive domains (visual-spatial execution, naming, memory, attention, language, abstraction, delayed recall and orientation), with a score from 0 to 30. The cut-off point for renal hemodialysis patients is less than or equal to 24, and the the higher the score, the better the vascular cognitive function
Kidney Disease and Quality-of-Life - Short Form 12 weeks eight dimensions, ten items for physical functioning, four items for limitations caused by physical health problems, three items for limitations caused by emotional health problems, two items for social functioning, five items for mental health, two items for pain, four items for vitality, energy and fatigue, five items for perceptions of general health and one item for current health status compared to a year ago, which is computed separately.The degree of commitment is measured using values ranging from zero (highest degree of commitment) to 100 (no commitment). Therefore, the higher the score obtained, the better the quality of life.
blood sample 12 weeks The analyzes carried out will be regarding the marker of muscle trophism (insulin-like growth factor type 1), pro-inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor - TNF-alpha) and anti-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin 10 - IL-10).
lower limb resistance 12 weeks Measured by dynamometry, the records will be in tolerated seconds.
