About this trial
This study aims to evaluate the effects of creatine monohydrate supplementation and an intradialytic exercise program on body composition, biochemical parameters, and functional capacity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. The study will compare the independent and combined effects of these interventions over an 8-week period to determine their potential benefits in this patient population.

Treatments tested in this trial
Group A with creatine monohydrate
DrugParticipants will receive 5 g of creatine monohydrate diluted in 100 mL of water daily for 8 weeks. On hemodialysis days, supplementation will be administered immediately after the dialysis session. On non-dialysis days, supplementation will be administered after a meal.
Group B placebo
Other interventionParticipants will receive 5 g of placebo diluted in 100 mL of water daily for 8 weeks. On hemodialysis days, placebo will be administered immediately after the dialysis session. On non-dialysis days, placebo will be administered after a meal.
Group C Intradialytic Exercise Program
BehavioralParticipants will perform a supervised intradialytic exercise program during hemodialysis sessions for 8 weeks. The program will include aerobic and resistance exercises performed three times per week according to the study protocol.
Comparison group D Hemodialysis
Procedure/SurgeryParticipants will continue receiving their prescribed maintenance hemodialysis treatment according to the standard clinical procedures of the dialysis center.
