Exercise and Dialysis PowerPoint Presentation

Slide 1 -

Exercise for Dialysis Patients Amanda Newberry, M.Ed. Exercise Physiologist University of Virginia Renal Services CRN Meeting November 2010

Slide 2 -

Objectives To provide knowledge and supporting data on benefits of intradialytic exercise To encourage incorporating exercise into routine patient care plan To provide information on beginning a unit based exercise program To describe the procedures and operations of a current unit based exercise program

Slide 3 -

Physical Functioning The ability of an individual to perform activities required in their daily lives. PF of dialysis patients is LOW!

Physical Inactivity leads to… Overall decline in physical well-being Poor physical performance Fluid build up in tissues Loss of bone strength Loss of appetite Muscle wasting Hypertension Dependence Fatigue

Benefits

Slide 11 -

Physiological Benefits Reduced risk of cardiovascular mortality Decreased use of antihypertensive medications Favorable adaptation of body composition Reduced C-reactive protein/increased albumin Improved removal of toxins by dialysis Improved exercise capacity Improved blood pressure control Improved lipid profile Esp increased HDL and reduced TG Increased hematocrit Prior to EPO therapy Improved glucose regulation

Slide 12 -

Psychological Benefits Reduced subjective fatigue symptoms Improved perception of physical functioning Improved perception of general health Reduced anxiety Improved mental health Reduced experience of bodily pain Increased vitality Improved psychological profile Reduced anxiety, hostility, and depression, and increased participation in pleasant activities

Slide 13 -

Functional Benefits Improved muscle strength Increased 6-min walk distance Reduced risk of falls in the elderly Maintenance of independence

Slide 14 -

Clearance During dialysis: Urea removed from blood Urea retained in peripheral body compartments Urea and creatinine distributed in body water Muscle water content high Muscle mass = ~40-45% total body weight Much of solute mass will be held within muscles Some body tissue is unexposed to dialysis 4. Kong, et al: Nephrol Dial Transplant. 1999; 14: 2927-2931.

Slide 15 -

Clearance After dialysis: Urea re-equilibrates and a rebound results Limits the efficiency of dialysis With exercise: Muscle blood flow increases Potential increase from 3-4ml/min per 100g to 80ml/min per 100g More tissue mass is exposed to the dialysis treatment 4. Kong, et al: Nephrol Dial Transplant. 1999; 14: 2927-2931.

Slide 17 -

Cramping Timing of exercise Type of exercise Intensity of exercise Start slowly, Progress gradually!!!

Slide 18 -

Exercise: A Vital Sign

Slide 19 -

Exercise Rx Surgeon General’s report: “significant health benefits can be obtained by including a moderate amount of physical activity….on most, if not all, days of the week”.

Slide 21 -

Exercise is MedicineTM Guiding principles: Exercise and physical activity are important to health and the prevention and treatment of many chronic diseases More should be done to address physical activity and exercise in healthcare settings ACSM and AMA are making efforts to bring a greater focus on physical activity and exercise in healthcare settings

New Program Resources Life Options Rehabilitation Advisory Council (LORAC)5 “Exercise for the Dialysis Patient” A Guide for the Dialysis Team Author: Patricia Painter, PhD Staff Responsibility to Exercise Carlson L, Carey S. ACKD Vol 6, No 2 pp172-180, 19996

Slide 24 -

Steps to developing an exercise program Gaining staff support Edu/inservice Case presentations Commitment to developing a program Group input Assurance of willingness of staff to participate Assess available resources Staff interest Teamwork Interested patients Local programs 6. Carlson L, Carey S. ACKD, 1999

Slide 25 -

Steps to developing an exercise program Develop a program Smaller working groups (care planning, motivation/education, exercise programming) Staff responsibilities identified Facilitate a sense of ownership amongst staff Start program Start slowly (one shift, one bay, interested pts) Progress gradually Ongoing evaluation CQI Patient reassessment Patient programs 6. Carlson L, Carey S. ACKD, 1999

Slide 26 -

UVA SitFit Exercise Program 8 Units 800 patients 50% patient participation 78% exercise compliance

Slide 27 -

UVA SitFit Exercise Program One Exercise Physiologist Exercise Leader at each unit Technician or RN Monthly QAPI Reports Monthly Compliance Reports Quarterly Exercise Team meetings

Slide 28 -

Beyond the science… Setting expectations Potential for patient to exercise Motivating a non-motivated patient

Slide 29 -

Barriers to Exercise Sickness Fatigue Lack of equipment Lack of motivation Depression Lack of encouragement Most can be resolved through exercise!
