Chronic kidney diseases (CKD) with long duration and a variety of complications have caused great physical and psychological problems for patients, and the overall quality of life of patients is low. Taijiquan, as a traditional Chinese techniques project, is beneficial to improving cardiopulmonary function, enhancing lower limb muscle strength, and reducing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risks. We summarized the latest progress in clinical research concerning taijiquan as exercise rehabilitation for patients with CKD, aiming to promote the clinical application of taijiquan and other traditional exercises in the rehabilitation process of CKD patients and improve the overall quality of life of CKD patients.
