Effects of Creatine Supplementation in Sarcopenic and Non-sarcopenic Patients on Chronic Hemodialysis
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Creatine for Dialysis; Complications and Performance Enhancing Product Use. Completed, enrolled 18 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Adult patients undergoing chronic dialysis therapy for at least three months were selected. A physical function assessment was conducted, including the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) and a handgrip strength test. Additionally, a bioelectrical impedance analysis was performed. Subsequently, 5 grams of creatine were administered daily for a period of eight weeks, after which the same assessments were repeated. The results were then analyzed to identify any differences in the tests, aiming to detect potential changes following creatine supplementation.
