Brief summary
To study the effect of mindfulness meditation combined with progressive muscle relaxation training on clinical efficacy and quality of life in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients with sarcopenia. Eligible sarcopenic patients in our hospital were randomly assigned to a control group (n = 24) and an intervention group (n = 25). The control group received conventional dialysis treatment, while the intervention group received mindfulness meditation combined with progressive muscle relaxation training during the interdialysis period in addition to conventional dialysis treatment. The effect of the intervention was evaluated after 12 weeks.To observe whether the combined intervention training can improve the motor ability and quality of life of patients with sarcopenia in a short period of time.
Interventions
The first part is progressive muscle relaxation training. The second part is mindfulness meditation training.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 10 sit-to-stand test in seconds | 3 months | The 10 sit-stand test represents exercise ability, and the shorter the time, the greater the exercise ability. |
| Grip strength in kilograms | 3 months | Grip strength represents exercise ability, and the larger it is, the more exercise ability it is.Its minimum value is zero, and its maximum value is unlimited. |
| 6-meter walk test in metre per second | 3 months | 6-meter walk test represents exercise ability, and the larger it is, the more exercise ability it is.Its minimum value is zero metre per second, and its maximum value is unlimited. |
| KDQOLTM(Kidney Disease Quality of Life short Form) score | 3 months | The KDQOLTM score is between 0 and 100, and the higher the score, the better the health |
| interleukin-6 (IL-6) | 3 months | Interleukin 6 represents an inflammatory marker, and its concentration is 20pg/ml or less. |
| high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) | 3 months | hsCRP represents an inflammatory marker, and its concentration ranges from 0.0 to 10mg/L. |
| albumin(ALB) | 3 months | Albumin represents a nutritional indicator, and its concentration ranges from 40 to 55g/L. |
| prealbumin (PA) | 3 months | Prealbumin represents a nutritional indicator, and its concentration ranges from 0.20 to 0.43g/l. |
