Abstract
Self-exercise during hemodialysis reportedly prevents functional decline. This study aimed to assess the effects of exercise on physical function during hemodialysis. From September 2014 to March 2018, 35 elderly dialysis patients participated in an exercise program 3 times a week for 24 weeks during hemodialysis under staff supervision. The Short Physical Performance Battery and muscle strength test were used to measure physical function, and the Short Form Version 2 and Self-Rating Questionnaire for Depression were used to measure psychological function. For Short Physical Performance Battery, walking speed and standing time improved significantly. Other significant improvements were observed in both knee extension muscle strength and right side of grip strength. There was also an improving trend in both Short Form Version 2 and Self-Rating Questionnaire for Depression after the intervention compared with the baseline. A long-term supervised self-exercise program during dialysis led to maintenance and improvement of physical and psychological functioning in elderly dialysis patients.

Abstract
The objective of this article was to analyze the factors associated with complex multimorbidity (CMM) among hemodialysis patients in a metropolitan region in southeastern Brazil. To this end, a cross-sectional epidemiological survey was carried out with 1,024 individuals in the year 2019. CMM data were collected through the application of a questionnaire to hemodialysis patients. The binary logistic regression model was used to estimate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) between independent variables and CMM. The prevalence of CMM was 81% and the results indicated that: living in cities with a low rate of general mortality (OR = 0.395, 95%CI = 0.179-0.870), being aged between 18 and 29 (OR = 0.402, 95%CI = 0.196-0.825), having an elementary education (OR = 0.536, 95%CI = 0.290-0.966) and assessing health as good/very good (OR = 0.446, 95%CI = 0.301-0.661) are factors that reduced the chances of having CMM, whereas a longer period of hemodialysis (OR = 1.779 and 95%CI = 1.057-2.997) increased the chances of CMM. The findings show that characteristics of the social and individual context are associated with CMM in hemodialysis patients, signaling the need for public health policies that include monitoring the complex multimorbidity condition among individuals undergoing hemodialysis treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES We aim to adapt the International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurements standard set for chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients to the Spanish setting and supplement it with those variables agreed upon through initiatives proposed by the Spanish Society of Nephrologists (S.E.N.). MATERIAL AND METHODS The working group defined a first standard set of variables based on a literature review. The S.E.N. members then assessed the suitability of each variable for inclusion (Consensus≥75%). A second draft of the standard set was generated and evaluated by the Patient advocacy group Federación Nacional de Asociaciones para la Lucha Contra las Enfermedades del Riñón (ALCER). Lastly, the working group established the final standard set of variables (Consensus≥75%). RESULTS The standard set targets patients with very high-risk CKD (G3a/A3 and G3b/A2-G5) in pre-end-stage kidney disease (pre-ESKD), hemodialysis (HD), peritoneal dialysis (PD), kidney transplantation (KT) or conservative care (CC). The essential follow-up variables agreed for all patients (All) were patient survival, hospitalizations, cardiovascular events, smoking status, health-related quality of life, pain, fatigue, physical function, daily activities, depression, renal function and hemoglobin. Additionally, it was agreed to collect PD survival (in PD patients), peritonitis (PD), infection/bacteremia (PD, HD, KT), vascular access type (HD), vascular access survival (HD), acute rejection (KT), post-transplant cancer (KT), albuminuria (KT) and kidney allograft survival (KT). The optional variables agreed were phosphorus (All), potassium (All), diabetes control (All with diabetes), and albuminuria (pre-ESKD). CONCLUSIONS This standard set may constitute a highly efficient tool allowing the evaluation of patient outcomes and helping to define strategies to enhance CKD patients' quality of care in the Spanish healthcare system.

Correlates of Rates and Treatment Readiness for Depressive Symptoms, Pain, and Fatigue in Hemodialysis Patients: Results from the TĀCcare Study. KIDNEY360 2023; 4:e1265-e1275. [PMID: 37461138 PMCID: PMC10547226 DOI: 10.34067/kid.0000000000000213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2023] [Revised: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/10/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023]
Abstract
Key Points Lower neighborhood walkability was associated with higher depressive symptoms and fatigue and younger age with depressive symptoms. Depressive symptoms, pain, and fatigue were frequently reported, often occurred together, and were often not all already treated. Patients with a higher symptom burden and men may be more likely to be ready to seek treatment for depressive symptoms, pain, or fatigue. Background Patients on hemodialysis (HD) often experience clinically significant levels of pain, fatigue, and depressive symptoms. We explored potential sociodemographic differences in symptom burden, current treatment, and readiness to seek treatment for these symptoms in patients screened for the TĀCcare trial. Methods In-center HD patients from Pennsylvania and New Mexico were screened for fatigue (≥5 on 0–10-point Likert scale), pain (Likert scale ≥4), depressive symptoms (≥10 Patient Health Questionnaire-9), and readiness to seek treatment (5–item Stages of Behavior Change questionnaire). Symptom burden and treatment status by sociodemographic factors were evaluated using chi square, Fisher exact tests, and logistic regression models. Results From March 2018 to December 2021, 506 of 896 (57%) patients screened met eligibility criteria and completed the symptom screening (mean age 60±13.9 years, 44% female, 17% Black, 25% American Indian, and 25% Hispanics). Of them, 77% screened positive for ≥1 symptom and 35% of those were receiving treatment for ≥1 of these symptoms. Pain, fatigue, and depressive symptom rates were 52%, 64%, and 24%, respectively. Age younger than 65 years was associated with a higher burden of depressive symptoms, pain, and reporting ≥1 symptom (P <0.05). The percentage of patients ready to seek treatment increased with symptom burden. More men reported readiness to seek treatment (85% versus 68% of women, P <0.001). Among those with symptoms and treatment readiness, income was inversely associated with pain (>$60,000/yr: odds ratio [OR]=0.16, confidence interval [CI]=0.03 to 0.76) and living in less walkable neighborhoods with more depressive symptoms (OR= 5.34, CI=1.19 to 24.05) and fatigue (OR= 5.29, CI=1.38 to 20.33). Conclusions Pain, fatigue, and depressive symptoms often occurred together, and younger age, less neighborhood walkability, and lower income were associated with a higher burden of symptoms in HD patients. Male patients were less likely to be receiving treatment for symptoms. These findings could inform priority HD patient symptom identification and treatment targets.

The Impact of a Wearable Activity Tracker and Structured Feedback Program on Physical Activity in Hemodialysis Patients: The Step4Life Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial. Am J Kidney Dis 2023; 82:75-83. [PMID: 36801430 PMCID: PMC10962931 DOI: 10.1053/j.ajkd.2022.12.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2022] [Accepted: 12/18/2022] [Indexed: 02/19/2023]
Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE People with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) have very low physical activity, and the degree of inactivity is strongly associated with morbidity and mortality. We assessed the feasibility and effectiveness of a 12-week intervention coupling a wearable activity tracker (FitBit) and structured feedback coaching versus wearable activity tracker alone on changes in physical activity in hemodialysis patients. STUDY DESIGN Randomized controlled trial. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS 55 participants with ESKD receiving hemodialysis who were able to walk with or without assistive devices recruited from a single academic hemodialysis unit between January 2019 and April 2020. INTERVENTIONS All participants wore a Fitbit Charge 2 tracker for a minimum of 12 weeks. Participants were randomly assigned 1:1 to a wearable activity tracker plus a structured feedback intervention versus the wearable activity tracker alone. The structured feedback group was counseled weekly on steps achieved after randomization. OUTCOME The outcome was step count, and the main parameter of interest was the absolute change in daily step count, averaged per week, from baseline to completion of 12 weeks intervention. In the intention-to-treat analysis, mixed-effect linear regression analysis was used to evaluate change in daily step count from baseline to 12-weeks in both arms. RESULTS Out of 55 participants, 46 participants completed the 12-week intervention (23 per arm). The mean age was 62 (± 14 SD) years; 44% were Black, and 36% were Hispanic. At baseline, step count (structured feedback intervention: 3,704 [1,594] vs wearable activity tracker alone: 3,808 [1,890]) and other participant characteristics were balanced between the arms. We observed a larger change in daily step count in the structured feedback arm at 12 weeks relative to use of the wearable activity tracker alone arm (Δ 920 [±580 SD] versus Δ 281 [±186 SD] steps; between-group difference Δ 639 [±538 SD] steps; P<0.05). LIMITATIONS Single-center study and small sample size. CONCLUSION This pilot randomized controlled trial demonstrated that structured feedback coupled with a wearable activity tracker led to a greater daily step count that was sustained over 12 weeks relative to a wearable activity tracker alone. Future studies are required to determine longer-term sustainability of the intervention and potential health benefits in hemodialysis patients.

Abstract
Telemedicine and digitalised healthcare have recently seen exponential growth, led, in part, by increasing efforts to improve patient flexibility and autonomy, as well as drivers from financial austerity and concerns over climate change. Nephrology is no exception, and daily innovations are underway to provide digitalised alternatives to current models of healthcare provision. Wearable technology already exists commercially, and advances in nanotechnology and miniaturisation mean interest is also garnering clinically. Here, we outline the current existing wearable technology pertaining to the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with a spectrum of kidney disease, give an overview of wearable dialysis technology, and explore wearables that do not yet exist but would be of great interest. Finally, we discuss challenges and potential pitfalls with utilising wearable technology and the factors associated with successful implementation.

Abstract
BackgroundPhysical inactivity is common in patients receiving hemodialysis, but activity patterns throughout the day and in relation to dialysis are largely unknown. This knowledge gap can be addressed by long-term continuous activity monitoring, but this has not been attempted and may not be acceptable to patients receiving dialysis.MethodsAmbulatory patients with end-stage kidney disease receiving thrice-weekly hemodialysis wore commercially available wrist-worn activity monitors for 6 months. Step counts were collected every 15 minutes and were linked to dialysis treatments. Physical function was assessed using the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB). Fast time to recovery from dialysis was defined as ≤2 hours. Mixed effects models were created to estimate step counts over time.ResultsOf 52 patients enrolled, 48 were included in the final cohort. The mean age was 60 years, and 75% were Black or Hispanic. Comorbidity burden was high, 38% were transported to and from dialysis by paratransit, and 79% had SPPB <10. Median accelerometer use (199 days) and adherence (95%) were high. Forty-two patients (of 43 responders) reported wearing the accelerometer every day, and few barriers to adherence were noted. Step counts were lower on dialysis days (3991 [95% CI, 3187 to 4796] versus 4561 [95% CI, 3757 to 5365]), but step-count intensity was significantly higher during the hour immediately after dialysis than during the corresponding time on nondialysis days (188 steps per hour increase [95% CI, 171 to 205]); these levels were the highest noted at any time. Postdialysis increases were more pronounced among patients with fast recovery time (225 [95% CI, 203 to 248] versus 134 [95% CI, 107 to 161] steps per hour) or those with SPPB ≥7. Estimates were unchanged after adjustment for demographics, diabetes status, and ultrafiltration rate.ConclusionsLong-term continuous monitoring of physical activity is feasible in patients receiving hemodialysis. Highly granular data collection and analysis yielded new insights into patterns of activity after dialysis treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Digital phenotyping is the real-time collection of individual-level active and passive data from users in naturalistic and free-living settings via personal digital devices, such as mobile phones and wearable devices. Given the novelty of research in this field, there is heterogeneity in the clinical use cases, types of data collected, modes of data collection, data analysis methods, and outcomes measured. OBJECTIVE The primary aim of this scoping review was to map the published research on digital phenotyping and to outline study characteristics, data collection and analysis methods, machine learning approaches, and future implications. METHODS We utilized an a priori approach for the literature search and data extraction and charting process, guided by the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews). We identified relevant studies published in 2020, 2021, and 2022 on PubMed and Google Scholar using search terms related to digital phenotyping. The titles, abstracts, and keywords were screened during the first stage of the screening process, and the second stage involved screening the full texts of the shortlisted articles. We extracted and charted the descriptive characteristics of the final studies, which were countries of origin, study design, clinical areas, active and/or passive data collected, modes of data collection, data analysis approaches, and limitations. RESULTS A total of 454 articles on PubMed and Google Scholar were identified through search terms associated with digital phenotyping, and 46 articles were deemed eligible for inclusion in this scoping review. Most studies evaluated wearable data and originated from North America. The most dominant study design was observational, followed by randomized trials, and most studies focused on psychiatric disorders, mental health disorders, and neurological diseases. A total of 7 studies used machine learning approaches for data analysis, with random forest, logistic regression, and support vector machines being the most common. CONCLUSIONS Our review provides foundational as well as application-oriented approaches toward digital phenotyping in health. Future work should focus on more prospective, longitudinal studies that include larger data sets from diverse populations, address privacy and ethical concerns around data collection from consumer technologies, and build "digital phenotypes" to personalize digital health interventions and treatment plans.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Remaining physically active is important to patients undertaking dialysis, however, clinical recommendations regarding exercise type, timing, intensity, and safety precautions vary. The purpose of this scoping review was to analyse and summarise recommendations for physical activity and exercise for people undertaking dialysis and identify areas that require further research or clarification. MATERIALS AND METHODS A scoping review of literature from five bibliographic databases (Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, CINAHL, and SPORTDiscus) was conducted. Eligible articles included consensus guidelines, position statements, reviews, or clinical practice guidelines that included specific physical activity and exercise recommendations for people undertaking dialysis. Key search terms included "kidney disease" OR "kidney failure" OR "chronic kidney disease" OR "end stage kidney disease" AND guideline* OR consensus OR "position statement" OR prescription OR statement AND exercise OR "physical activity". Hand searching for relevant articles in all first twenty quartile 1 journals listed on SCImago under 'medicine-nephrology' and 'physical therapy, sports therapy and rehabilitation' using the terms 'exercise and dialysis' was undertaken. Finally, home pages of key societies and professional organisations in the field of sports medicine and nephrology were searched. RESULTS The systematic search strategy identified 19 articles met the inclusion criteria. Two were specific to pediatric dialysis and three to peritoneal dialysis. Whilst many publications provided recommendations on aerobic exercise, progressive resistance training and flexibility, few provided explicit guidance. Recommendations for the intensity, duration and frequency of aerobic and resistance training varied. Discrepancies or gaps in guidance about precautions, contraindications, termination criteria, progression, and access site precautions were also apparent. CONCLUSION Future guidelines should include specific guidance regarding physical activity, safety precautions, and timing and intensity of exercise for individuals who undertake dialysis. Collaborative multidisciplinary guideline development and appropriate exercise counselling may lead to increased participation in physical activity and exercise and facilitate better patient outcomes.

Abstract
BackgroundPhysical inactivity is an essential factor in the prognosis of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Daily step count is a straightforward measure to assess physical activity levels. Understanding the step counts among different CKD stages is essential to change sedentary behavior.ObjectivesThis systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the daily step counts in patients with CKD at a different stage.DesignA systematic review and meta-analysis.Data SourcesThe literature search was performed in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science from inception to November 3rd, 2021.Review MethodsObservational studies (cross-sectional, case-control, or cohort studies) reported specific values of step counts in CKD patients by the wearable device were included. A random-effects model was used to pool the data. Subgroup analysis explored differences in outcomes by stage of CKD. Heterogeneity between studies was assessed using the χ2 test of Cochrane's Q statistic. A contour-enhanced funnel plot was conducted to investigate publication bias. Univariate and multivariate meta-regression was conducted to examine possible sources of heterogeneity.ResultsTwenty-eight articles were identified and used for quantitative analysis. The result showed that the daily step count in patients with CKD was 4642.47 (95% CI: 4274.18–5010.76), and significantly lower than the healthy population. Subgroup analysis revealed that the step counts decreased before dialysis, dropped to a freezing point at the hemodialysis phase, and increased after kidney transplantation. Meta-regression analysis showed that daily step counts were relatively higher in the Americas or younger than 60 or kidney transplant recipients.ConclusionThe status of daily step counts in patients with CKD decreases with CKD severity and increases after kidney transplantation. Although studies have begun to focus on strategies to improve step counts in patients with CKD, future studies should focus more on step counts in pre-dialysis patients and changing their physically inactive lifestyle early to alleviate deteriorating renal function.Systematic Review Registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?RecordID=291551, identifier: CRD42021291551.

Abstract
Available data indicated that physical activity was related to improved outcomes in hemodialysis patients. Multiple observational studies involving different cohorts have reported that increased physical activity level was associated with decreased mortality among hemodialysis patients. Therefore, promoting physical activity has become an increasingly critical and promising approach to improving cardiovascular health and clinical outcomes in hemodialysis patients. This review summarizes the published articles regarding physical activity and hemodialysis patients, focusing on mortality and strategy to promote physical activity.

Signatures of Gait Movement Variability in CKD Patients Scheduled for Hemodialysis Indicate Pathological Performance Before and After Hemodialysis: A Prospective, Observational Study. Front Med (Lausanne) 2021; 8:702029. [PMID: 34395481 PMCID: PMC8355421 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2021.702029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2021] [Accepted: 06/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The frailty status of hemodialysis patients is well-known, but the role of the therapy in the frailty process is not yet clear. Nowadays gait analysis in nephrology is neglected, although gait performance is known to be related to frailty and kidney function. We hypothesized that gait quality and physical activity level is already affected before, and does not change because of the start of hemodialysis. Methods: Fourteen patients (72.3 ± 5.7 years old) in a pre-dialysis program underwent an instrumental gait analysis and their physical activity was monitored for a week. This protocol was repeated 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after the first hemodialysis session. Results: At baseline, our sample showed a conservative gait with pathologic gait variability, high dual-task cost, and a sedentary lifestyle. No statistically significant change was found in any parameter in the analyzed period, but there was a tendency toward an improvement of gait quality and physical activity in the first year of treatment, and a decline in the second year. Conclusion: Elderly patients in the pre-dialysis stage show a conservative gait, however variability was in a pathological range and did not change post-hemodialysis. This hints toward changes in the central nervous system due to the kidney disease. This finding suggests the importance of gait analysis in the early stages of renal disease in the diagnosis of changes in the nervous system due to kidney failure that affect gait. Early detection of these changes would potentially allow a prevention program tailored to this population to be developed.
