NCT ID NCT07357194
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study surveyed 158 kidney failure patients in Cairo government hospitals to find out what prevents them from joining renal rehabilitation programs. Researchers used a questionnaire to measure patients' views on exercise benefits and barriers. The goal is to identify key obstacles so that future programs can be designed to help more patients participate.
