Summary

Cardiovascular diseases are among the most common causes of death in kidney transplant patients. Physical activity is of great importance in preventing cardiovascular diseases after transplantation. Although regular physical activity is recommended in international guidelines to prevent post-transplant mortality and morbidity in kidney transplant patients, studies have shown that patients do not follow regular physical activity instructions.The aim of our project is to examine the effect of pedometer-assisted physical activity on metabolic parameters after kidney transplantation.
