Official title

Exercise as an Intervention to Treat Frailty and Decreased Physical Function in Kidney Transplant Candidates

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Frailty is a condition characterized by slowness, weakness, low physical activity, wasting, and exhaustion. Frailty increases the risk for adverse outcomes following transplant such as increased length of stay in the hospital, mortality, or graft function. No interventions for frailty are known for patients with renal disease, but exercise programs like pulmonary rehabilitation have been effective in improving frailty in patients with other diseases, such as lung disease. The goal of this study is to test whether exercise will also improve frailty among patients who are waiting for a kidney transplant and who are considered frail or pre-frail.
