Summary

Aim: By application of wearable devices and health management platform to strengthen physical activity and improved life quality in hemodialysis patients.

Detailed description

Background: End stage renal disease (ESRD) is a global public health issue. The dialysis therapy brings huge economic burden to many countries. If patients are able to monitor their lifestyle, it not only promotes health, but also reduces the cost of health care. Aim: By application of wearable devices and health management platform to strengthen physical activity and improved life quality in hemodialysis patients. Material and Methods: The investigators plan to recruit 30 CKD patients as trial subjects for intervention. The intervention included wearable devices and health management platform for 24 weeks. Patients record their own diet diary by a smartphone application, and their exercise-related data are collected by wearable devices. Then, all the collected information will be upload to health management platform. The investigators compare physical and laboratory examinations before and after the intervention.

Conditions

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Health platform	Each participant was provided with a wearable device (a Heart Rate Smart Wristband, GSH405-B6, Golden Smart Home Technology Corporation). Each participant downloaded an app (WowGoHealth app) to connect with the health management platform (GSH AI health platform). Participants' exercise-related data, including number of steps walked, distance, consumed calories, and heart rate, were collected by the wearable devices. All participants were taught to record a dietary diary (taking photos of meals) using a smartphone application. All collected information was uploaded to the health management platform. For the intervention group, we encouraged exercise including an 18-minutes calisthenics made by the Health Promotion Administration, Ministry of Health and Welfare (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3xJW-b2tZY).
BEHAVIORAL	Social media	We built a LINE group to inspire the intervention group.
OTHER	Exercise training	exercise including walk and an 18-minutes calisthenics
