Determinants of physical performance in ambulatory patients on hemodialysis.
Kidney Int. 2001; (4): 1586-91
Physical performance measures, particularly gait speed, have been useful as predictors of loss of independence, institutionalization, and mortality in older nonuremic individuals. Gait speed has not been evaluated as a predictor of these important outcomes in patients on hemodialysis, nor have the determinants of gait speed in the dialysis population been studied.
