Summary

Isometric exercise has been shown to increase the diameter and the blood flow rate of forearm veins.At present, more studies focus on the perioperative period to promote the maturation of arteriovenous fistula(AVF), while there are few reports on functional maintenance measures for the patients with maintenance hemodialysis.This study aims to explore the effect of dumbbell exercise on AVF,and evaluate whether patients can carry a 6-pound item with the fistula limb in a reasonable way.

Conditions

  • Arteriovenous Fistula

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

The handgrip exercise

The control group was given routine dialysis treatment and daily handgrip exercise .Patients are asked to squeeze a rubber ring 30 times per min for altogether 20 minutes on non-dialysis days.The 20-minute exercise can be divided into 3 parts according to individual circumstances.

BEHAVIORAL

The dumbbell exercise

The experimental group was given routine dialysis treatment and daily dumbbell exercise .Patients are asked to hold 6-pound dumbbells to exercise 30 times per min for altogether 20 minutes on non-dialysis days.The 20-minute exercise can be divided into 3 parts according to individual circumstances.
