Physical Activity Prescription Program for Hemodialysis Patients
NCT06830993 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of a standard intradialytic exercise program (control group) to an individualized, patient-centered, "Move-More" physical activity intervention (intervention group) in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Exercise programs often fail to yield robust benefits for many HD patients, in part because the type and volume of exercise prescribed is inappropriate for a variety of reasons, and the benefits from these studies are often disappointing, as they are characterized by poor adherence, high dropout rates, and modest effects on physical function, body composition, cardiovascular disease risk, and other outcomes related to quality of life (QOL). To address this, the investigators have designed a novel physical activity intervention "Move More" that is designed to overcome many of the barriers to increasing physical activity in this population. This study aims to compare the efficacy of a standard intradialytic exercise program (control group) to an individualized, patient-centered, "Move-More" physical activity intervention (intervention group) in HD patients. The investigators primary hypothesis is that patients randomized to the Move More intervention will increase their physical activity levels more than those in the intradialytic exercise group. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does "Move More" increase the physical activity levels (minutes) measured through weekly minutes of physical activity and the LoPAQ questionnaire more than those in the standard intradialytic exercise program? For secondary outcomes this study aims to answer the following: * Does "Move More" improve the physical function of hemodialysis patients assessed by the short physical performance battery (SPBB) more than those in the standard intradialytic exercise program? * Does "Move More" decrease fatigue assess by the SONG-HD survey more than those in the standard intradialytic exercise program? * Does "Move More" decrease symptoms o

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06830993
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06830993 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 40 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Arizona, which has 379 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Hemodialysis appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which "Move More" Personalized Exercise Program is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06830993 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Arizona. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
