Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a disease defined as
persistent alterations in kidney structure, function or both with implications
for the health of the individual. Purpose of the Study: This study was
conducted to determine the effect of resisted exercise in comparison with
whole body vibration in selective renal functions and physical performance
in hemodialysis patients. Subjects and Methods: Sixty patients of both
sexes(34 male and 26 female) with chronic renal failure participated in the
study, their age ranged from 40 to 50 years old and recruited from
hemodialysis unit of Mashtoul Al-Souk Centeral hospital, Alsharkia,
Egypt. They were randomly assigned into three equals in number (A,
B&C). each study group (A& B) was received treatment program 3 times
-week (inter dialytic) for 12 weeks study group (A) was received resisted
exercise (mild) using ankle free weights for lower limb muscles, study
group B was received Whole-body vibration training (WBVT) and control
group (C) was received conventional physical therapy program (aerobic
exercise and breathing exercise). Assessment was performed twice, before
and after treatment: urea reduction ratio, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, 6-
minute walk test and quality of life questionnaire. Results: The results
showed there was significant decrease of Urea, and URR as well as
significant increase of 6MWT and energy, emotion, total of Sf 36 and in
group A & B compared with control group. There was as significant
decrease of creatinine in group B compared with control group and no
significant difference of creatinine in group A compared with control
group. Conclusion: Both resisted exercise and whole-body vibration are
effective in improvement of dialysis efficiency and performance.

مرض الكلى المزمن هو متلازمة تعرف بأنها تغيرات مستمرة في بنية الكلى أو وظيفتها أو كليهما مع ما يترتب على ذلك من آثار على صحة المريض. الغرض من الدراسة: أجريت هذه الدراسة لتحديد تأثير التمارين المقاومة مقابل اهتزاز الجسم كله في وظائف الكلى الانتقائية والأداء البدني لدى مرضى غسيل الكلى. شارك في الدراسة ستون مريضاً من كلا الجنسين مصابين بالفشل الكلوي المزمن، تراوحت أعمارهم بين 40 إلى 50 سنة وتم تجنيدهم من وحدة غسيل الكلى بمستشفى مشتول السوق المركزي، الشرقية، مصر.
