End Stage Renal Disease on Dialysis
Conditions
Brief summary
The investigators will calculate values of absolute and relative reliability for intrarater reliability when the measures are taken during a hemodialysis treatment day and during a non-dialysis day. Interrater reliability between two different observers will be also calculated
Detailed description
Patients suffering from End Stage Renal Disease are commonly involved in haemodialysis treatment, which is the most common treatment at this stage. Haemodialysis substitutes the renal function but is associated with several alterations that lead to decrease in functional capacity. Many studies show that functional capacity is significantly worse than their healthy sedentary age - matched counterparts. The purpose of the present study is to calculate values of absolute and relative intrarater reliability (dialysis vs non dialysis day) and interrater reliability of different physical function measures (Short Physical Performance Battery, one-leg balance, Timed Up and go, sit to stand to sit tests, triceps and handgrip strength, six-minute walking test).
Interventions

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change from baseline Short Physical Performance Battery at one week | It will perform the test three times with one week interval between the testing sessions, one before hemodialysis, and the other one next week during a non-dialysis day | Assess lower extremity, which includes objective performance-based measure of balance (side-by-side, semitandem and tandem), endurance (4m gait speed) and strength (five chair stands). Each component was scored from 0 to 4 and when summed yielded SPPB scores between 0 (poor) and 12 (best). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change from baseline One-leg standing test at one week | It will perform the test three times with one week interval between the testing sessions, one before hemodialysis, and the other one next week during a non-dialysis day | Time achieved while standing on one leg |
| Change from baseline Timed up and go at one week | It will perform the test three times with one week interval between the testing sessions, one before hemodialysis, and the other one next week during a non-dialysis day | Time to stand up, walk 3 meters, come back and sit down again |
| Change from baseline Sit to stand 10 test at one week | It will perform the test three times with one week interval between the testing sessions, one before hemodialysis, and the other one next week during a non-dialysis day | Time to perform 10 repetitions sit to stand |
| Change from baseline Gait speed at one week at one week | It will perform the test three times with one week interval between the testing sessions, one before hemodialysis, and the other one next week during a non-dialysis day | Speed to cover 4 meters, in meters/second |
| Change from baseline One-leg heel rise test at one week | It will perform the test three times with one week interval between the testing sessions, one before hemodialysis, and the other one next week during a non-dialysis day | Number of heel rise repetitions achieved |
| Change from baseline 6 minutes walk test at one week | It will perform the test three times with one week interval between the testing sessions, one before hemodialysis, and the other one next week during a non-dialysis day | Number of meters walked in 6 minutes |
| Change from baseline Handgrip at one week | It will perform the test three times with one week interval between the testing sessions, one before hemodialysis, and the other one next week during a non-dialysis day | Bilateral handgrip strength |
| Change from baseline Sit to stand 60 test at one week | It will perform the test three times with one week interval between the testing sessions, one before hemodialysis, and the other one next week during a non-dialysis day | Sit to stand repetitions performed in 60 seconds |
