NCT02697942

Brief Summary

This will be a pilot, single center, randomized, controlled trial to slow cognitive decline in adults undergoing hemodialysis (HD). The investigators will test two interventions (cognitive training and exercise training) against the standard of care.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Cognitive function measured using the Modified Mini Mental Status

    Cognitive decline assessed as both the change in Modified Mini Mental Status and Trail making Test A and B scores as well as 10% decline in these measures of cognitive function

    6 months post-intervention

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • physical function measured using the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPBB)

    6 months post-intervention

  • Fried frailty phenotype

    6 months post-intervention

  • health-related quality of life (HRQOL)

    6 months post-intervention

  • Cognitive function

    6 months post-intervention

Study Arms (3)

Standard of care

NO INTERVENTION

Participants randomized to the standard of care arm will not receive any intervention.

Cognitive training (CT)

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants randomized to the CT arm will be given a tablet with connection to Lumosity®, which is a web-based "brain game". Participants will use the tablets to play brain games at each dialysis session.

Other: cognitive training

Exercise training (ET)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants randomized to ET arm will be given a stationary foot peddler. This foot peddler will be situated at a comfortable distance from the dialysis chair so that the patient can comfortably reach the peddler. Participants will use the foot peddlers at each dialysis session.

Other: exercise training

Interventions

The investigators will provide participants with tablets to play brain games through Lumosity.

Cognitive training (CT)

The investigators will provide participants with foot peddlers.

Exercise training (ET)
