Conditions

End Stage Renal Disease, Hemolysis

Brief summary

adolescents with chronic renal failure going on hemodialysis usually complain many problems including compromised ventilation, early fatigue, early physical intolerance, and bad life quality. incentive spirometer is highly recommended to improve these problems. also, walking program, especially walking with dog, can increase the benefits of incentive spirometer

Detailed description

End stage renal diseased adolescents (numbering forty) will be grouped randomly to two random groups, twenty adolescents in group I or group II. Both groups will trained by incentive spirometer 30 min during the sessions of dialysis three applications weekly for 12 weeks. Group I will additionally walked freely with a dog 30 min three times weekly (in opposite days of hemodialysis). The duration of this trial will be 12 weeks.

Interventions

OTHERincentive spirometer and walking with dog

End stage renal diseased adolescents (numbering twenty) will trained by incentive spirometer 30 min during the sessions of dialysis three applications weekly for 12 weeks. they will additionally walked freely with a dog 30 min three times weekly (in opposite days of hemodialysis). The duration of this trial will be 12 weeks.

OTHERtraining by incentive spirometer only

End stage renal diseased adolescents (numbering twenty) will trained by incentive spirometer 30 min during the sessions of dialysis three applications weekly for 12 weeks.
