Summary

This study looks at how frailty affects people getting a kidney transplant. Researchers will use a simple physical test called the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) to measure frailty before and after transplant. They hope to learn if frailty scores can help predict recovery and outcomes. The study includes 50 adults on dialysis who are either eligible or not eligible for a kidney transplant.
