[ Summary ] To prevent patients from becoming bedridden, we have got to exercise classrooms with a health fitness instructor in our clinic on non-dialysis days. Participation in exercise programs should be a habit for patients. However, many patients find it difficult to continue their exercise regimens. Help in recommending exercise programs in line with nursing care insurance, will aid patients and their families. Early use of grip measurements to assess risk assessment for falls, due to muscle weakness is important.
