Haemodialysis (HD) patients usually engage in a low level of physical activities, which could impact the prognosis and mortality of this group. Fitness Qigong Baduanjin, a physical exercise from traditional Chinese Medicine, is known to have benefit in chronic heart failure patients and peritoneal dialysis patients. However, researches about Baduanjin in HD patients are currently limited. So, the aim of the study is to investigate the current exercise intensity of HD patients and its influencing factors, and to explore the effects of Baduanjin on HD patients.
