- Effects of aerobic training during hemodialysis on exercise tolerance and VO2 kinetics in end stage renal disease patients [ Time Frame: 3 months ]Before and after the intervention or control periods, the participants were submitted to an incremental work rate test and, two days apart, to a constant work rate test to the limit of tolerance.
