Summary

This study tests whether a 3-month nurse-led program can reduce frailty and improve self-management in people undergoing peritoneal dialysis. The program includes personalized assessments, education, exercise training, and social support. Researchers compare this program to standard care in 72 participants, measuring changes in frailty, nutrition, exercise confidence, and self-care behaviors.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: ITHBC-based comprehensive nursing intervention
What this could lead to: If successful, this program could offer a practical, non-drug way to reduce frailty and improve daily self-care for people on peritoneal dialysis.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage study (72 participants) testing a behavioral intervention, so results may not apply broadly. Frailty improvements may be modest or short-lived.
