Summary

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of intradialyic exercise on dialytic parameters, HRQL, and depression status in hemodialysis patients. A randomized controlled trial was conducted. Sixty-four participants were recruited using stratified random sampling and allocated with a 1:1 randomization ratio to either experimental group (EG, treated in odd weekdays, n = 32) or comparison group (CG, treated in even weekdays, n = 32). The EG received a 12-week intradialytic exercise, while the CG maintained usual lifestyles. Dialytic parameters, HRQL, and depression status were collected at baseline and at 12 weeks. The results indicated that there were no differences in changes of dialytic parameters from baseline between EG and CG. However, the EG had increased HRQL and reduced depression status at 12 weeks compared with the CG. A 12-week intradialytic exercise is safe, feasible and effective in improved HRQL and reduced depression status for hemodialysis patients.
