Reliability AssessmentOnline Therapeutic Exercise

Reliability Assessment: Device: Isokinetic dynamometer and mDurance® surface EMG Test-retest reliability of isokinetic and surface EMG measurements in upper limb, trunk, and lower limb

Online Therapeutic Exercise: Behavioral: Online therapeutic exercise program 8-10 week supervised online program including resistance and mobility exercises

Study summary

This research aims to evaluate the reliability and reproducibility of muscle strength and activation measurement tools, including isokinetic dynamometry and surface electromyography, in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Additionally, the study will assess the feasibility and potential benefits of an online therapeutic exercise program supervised by physiotherapists.
