Randomized Trial of Aerobic Exercise Training on Cognitive and Physical Function in Chronic Kidney Disease
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Aerobic exercise training and Health Education for Chronic Kidney Disease. Completed, enrolled 99 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is exceedingly common in older adults, in whom it is associated with impairment in cognition and physical function. The purpose of this study is to test the effects of 12 months of aerobic and resistance exercise training compared to health education on cognitive and physical performance in 120 older adults with CKD not requiring dialysis. The results of this study will be essential for demonstrating the effectiveness of exercise in improving function and ultimately preventing disability in this high-risk population of older adults.
