What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • intradialytic exerciseOther

    HD men came to the HD unit three times weekly to receive their dialysis session which consumed 3-4 hours. During the first two hours of the men's dialysis session, a pedal exerciser (RTL10273 Deluxe Folding Pedal Exerciser, Drive Medical Co. MPN) was utilized in performing leg cycling exercises while men were sitting. Before starting the session of intradialytic cycling, a 5-minute stretching of the lower limbs was performed as a warming up. Also, as cooling down, the same period of lower limbs' stretching was performed after ending intradialytic cycling
