Summary

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of 18-month Baduanjin exercise on physical fitness and bone density in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. 50 MHD patients aged 18-75 will included in this study and randomly divided into two groups (intervention group and control group). The intervention group will be led by a professional person and underwent Baduanjin exercise three times a week before hemodialysis. The control group maintained routine treatment and daily activities.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Baduanjin exercise

Baduanjin has 8 movement forms, which are easy to learn without special equipment.These advantages make Baduanjin a suitable exercise for dialysis patients.The movements involved in Baduanjin require the individual to reach beyond the base of support, change the base of support between bilateral and unilateral stance, and perform movements in a sustained squatting posture. These maneuvers challenge balance and require muscle strength to be executed successfully.During the exercise of Baduanjin, the knees are half bent and the body center of gravity is stable between the feet, which can effectively develop the strength and endurance of skeletal muscle groups, improving the physical fitness and Bone mineral density.
