Physical Therapy Intervention for Functional Decline in a Young Adult with End-Stage Renal Disease on Hemodialysis: A Case Report

2026-07-03

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background End-stage renal disease (ESRD) in young adults is associated with significant functional impairments, including decreased strength, balance, and endurance. Physical therapy during hemodialysis may improve functional outcomes, yet evidence in low-resource settings, particularly sub-Saharan Africa, remains limited. This case adds to the sparse literature on rehabilitation outc...
