  • Effect of intradialytic progressive resistance exercise on hemoglobin and iron metabolism in maintenance hemodialysis patients

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of 24-week intradialytic progressive resistance exercise on hemoglobin and iron metabolism in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.MethodsFrom April to May 2019, 62 MHD patients were enrolled and randomly assigned into exercise group (n=31) and control group (n=31). Both groups of patients received regular routine hemodialysis, on that basis, patients in the exercise group completed intradialytic resistance exercise three times per week for 24 weeks. Each exercise included 8-10 muscle groups (grasping the grip ring with both hands, flexion and extension of the elbows and shoulders on the non-vascular side and lower limbs with sandbag), 3 sets of 15 repetitions with a rest of 1-2 min between 2 sets. Exercise began with a low load, the sandbag weight was gradually increased, and the Borg score was aimed to be 11-13 points after exercise. Hemoglobin, serum ferritin, transferrin saturation, serum creatinine, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, urea clearance index, recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) dosage at baseline and after 24 weeks, as well as the cumulative iron supplement dose and hemoglobin variation of the two groups during the study period were evaluated.ResultsThere were 20 patients in the exercise group and 30 ones in the control group who completed the study. After 24 weeks of progressive resistance exercise, the medium (lower quartile, upper quartile) of the amount of rHuEPO in the exercise group decreased from 6 000 (6 000, 9 000) U/week to 6 000 (4 500, 7 125) U/week (Z=−2.599, P=0.009), while that in the control group had no statistically significant difference (Z=−1.340, P=0.180); there was no statistically difference in hemoglobin, hemoglobin coefficient of variation, serum ferritin, transferrin saturation, or 24-week cumulative iron supplementation between the two groups.ConclusionIntradialytic progressive resistance exercise can reduce the amount of rHuEPO in MHD patients, which is benefitial to optimizing the management of hemoglobin.
