Abstract

<p>[Purpose] The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between cardiac function, vascular function, muscle strength index and the optimal load for exercise therapy, in order to establish a simple equation for estimating the optimal load for exercise therapy. [Participants and Methods] The subjects were 21 hemodialysis patients. The measurement items were left ventricular diastolic function, cardio ankle vascular index, muscle mass, grip strength and knee extension muscle strength. The optimal load weight ratio was defined as the value obtained by dividing the optimal load for exercise therapy by the body weight. [Results] Grip strength and knee extension muscle strength showed significant correlations with the optimal load weight ratio. Knee extension muscle strength was an independent determinant of the optimal load weight ratio, and the regression equation had moderate accuracy. [Conclusion] The results suggest that the optimal load for exercise therapy can be estimated from the knee extension muscle strength of hemodialysis patients.</p>
