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.

Introduction: Unplanned initiation of renal replacement therapy (RRT) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients is a common situation worldwide. In this scenario, peritoneal dialysis (PD) has emerged as a therapeutic option compared to hemodialysis (HD). In planned RRT, the costs of PD are lower than those of HD; however, the literature lacks such analyses when initiation is urgent.

This study investigated the impact of nursing interventions based on the Integrated Theory of Health Behavior Change on hemodialysis patients. A retrospective analysis of 713 hemodialysis patients' electronic medical records from June 2020 to November 2023 was conducted. Patients were divided into an experimental group, receiving nursing interventions based on the theory, and a control group, receiving regular nursing care.

Background: Contemporary population-based data examining the rates of cardiac surgery and the relationship between non-dialysis-requiring chronic kidney disease (CKD) and postoperative outcomes in cardiac surgery are limited.
Methods: We identified hospital admissions for cardiac surgical procedures in adults from 2010-2019 in the United States. The primary exposure was kidney disease, categorized as CKD stage G3, CKD stages G4 or G5, and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD).
Management of acute myocardial infarction in chronic kidney disease in Germany: an observational study.

Background: Managing acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) or end-stage renal disease on dialysis (renal replacement therapy, RRT) presents challenges due to elevated complication risks. Concerns about contrast-related kidney damage may lead to the omission of guideline-directed therapies like percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in this population.
Methods: We analysed German-DRG data of 2016 provided by the German Federal Bureau of Statistics (DESTATIS).

Objectives: The objective of this study was to describe current use, clinical practice, and outcomes of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in children in the intensive care unit (ICU) in Australia and New Zealand.
Design: retrospective, binational registry-based cohort study and electronic survey of clinical practice.
Setting: ICUs that contribute to the Australian and New Zealand Paediatric Intensive Care Registry and a survey conducted in November 2021 including ICUs accredited for paediatric intensive care training that provide CRRT for children were part of this study.
