Physical Activity in Short Daily Home Dialysis vs In-Center HD

Comparing patients on in-center HD (ICHD) to those on short daily home HD (SDHD), this study found those on SDHD were more active and less sedentary, slept longer, and had shorter recovery time after dialysis compared to those on ICHD. Labs showed similar levels of anemia and metabolic control, but SDHD preserved nutrition and reduced pre-dialysis beta-2 microglobulin (B2M).
