Renal Rehabilitation and Its Relationship with Anemia, Nutritional Status, and Activities of Daily Living in Patients Undergoing Maintenance Hemodialysis: A Systematic Review.

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

Renal rehabilitation means structured exercise, food and nutrition support, and a team of different specialists working together. This review gathered studies published between 2015 and 2025 on adults getting regular hemodialysis, and looked at effects on low blood count, nutrition, and the ability to handle daily tasks like dressing and walking. The studies it pulled together were small and used different methods, so the findings point to a benefit rather than prove one. It reports no single pooled number for how much these programs help.
