Abstract
This study evaluated the functional capacity measured by the Glittre-ADL test (TGlittre) in patients with nondialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD) and analyzed the test's associations with muscle strength, physical activity level (PAL), and quality of life. Methods: Thirty patients with NDD-CKD underwent the following evaluations: the TGlittre; the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ); the Short Form-36 (SF-36); and handgrip strength (HGS). The absolute value and percentage of the theoretical TGlittre time were 4.3 (3.3-5.2) min and 143.3 ± 32.7%, respectively. The main difficulties in completing the TGlittre were squatting to perform shelving and manual tasks, which were reported by 20% and 16.7% of participants, respectively. The TGlittre time correlated negatively with HGS (r = -0.513, p = 0.003). The TGlittre time was significantly different between the PALs considered "sedentary", "irregularly active", and "active" (p = 0.038). There were no significant correlations between TGlittre time and the SF-36 dimensions. Patients with NDD-CKD had a reduced functional capacity to exercise with difficulties performing squatting and manual tasks. There was a relationship between TGlittre time and both HGS and PAL. Thus, the incorporation of the TGlittre in the evaluation of these patients may improve the risk stratification and individualization of therapeutic care.
