    Hemodialysis can acutely affect muscle strength, with varied results observed in quadriceps, handgrip, and respiratory muscles. These changes may be due to opposing effects of dialysis-induced biochemical shifts.

    Area of Science:

    • Nephrology
    • Physiology
    • Exercise Science

    Background:

    • Hemodialysis involves rapid hemodynamic and biochemical changes.
    • The acute impact of hemodialysis on muscle strength is not well understood.
    • These physiological shifts may influence muscle performance during treatment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the acute effects of hemodialysis on muscle strength.
    • To assess changes in quadriceps, handgrip, and respiratory muscle strength pre- and post-dialysis.

    Main Methods:

    • Ten patients on chronic hemodialysis were studied.
    • Muscle strength (quadriceps, handgrip) measured before and after dialysis.
    • Respiratory muscle pressures (PI max, PE max) measured in seven patients.

    Main Results:

    • Quadriceps strength improved in 6/10 patients, decreased in 3/10.
    • Handgrip strength increased in 5/10 patients, decreased in 3/10.
    • Respiratory muscle pressures showed mixed changes, with more decreases than increases.

    Conclusions:

    • Hemodialysis induces variable acute changes in muscle strength.
    • No significant correlation found between strength changes and common biochemical markers or fluid balance.
    • Opposing biochemical effects during dialysis likely contribute to diverse patient outcomes.
