Group Exercise Program Supported by Audiovisual Media During Hemodialysis

People with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing hemodialysis (HD) experience muscular complications, such as sarcopenia, which worsen their functional capacity and increase mortality. Exercise programs during HD are an effective strategy to combat sedentary behavior, and implementing them through innovative technologies could facilitate their adoption in clinics, benefiting more patients. Therefore, the study\'s objectives are to assess the feasibility and safety of a group exercise program supported by audiovisual media conducted during HD sessions. Additionally, it will analyze factors influencing adherence, identify potential causes for interruptions or failure to perform the prescribed exercise, and evaluate the risk and prevalence of sarcopenia, its association with low muscle strength, poor muscle quality, and physical inactivity.
