Effect of Deep Breathing Exercise Training on Fatigue' Level among Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: Randomized Quasi-experimental Study

Abstract

Background: End-stage renal failure is one of the widespread diseases requiring hemodialysis renal replacement therapy. However; patients on maintenance hemodialysis usually suffer from fatigue. A recent growing interest is directed at applying non-pharmacological alongside traditional methods for managing such chronic complaints. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of deep breathing exercise training on level of fatigue among maintenance hemodialysis patients. Materials
