In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The concept of renal rehabilitation has become increasingly important with the increasing age of patients with severe or even terminal chronic kidney disease (CKD). It combines physical exercise and nutritional monitoring programs for patients with terminal CKD who are most often treated with conventional hemodialysis (HD) at a rate of 3 sessions of 4 hours per week. Sarcopenia is a very common phenomenon in patients with CKD. The prevalence found in recent meta-analyses varies between 25.6 and 28.5% in patients treated with dialysis. It is even higher in patients treated with HD than in patients treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD). Younger and more active patients will more often choose PD. The conventional HD modality preserves residual renal function less well, which is important for better elimination of uremic toxins bound to plasma proteins. Conventional HD requires a higher imm
