This study aims to evaluate the effect of core strengthening exercises on inspiratory muscle strength and functional capacity in patients with CKD undergoing Haemodialysis. The study included 10 patients with CKD undergoing hemodialysis according to the eligibility criteria. All patients performed core strengthening exercises for 6 weeks (2 times/week). The outcome measures are assessed before and after the intervention using inspiratory muscle strength and functional capacity. We found significant improvements in inspiratory muscle strength (p=0.150) and functional capacity (p=0.004) after the core strengthening exercises. At the end of the result, we concluded that the core strengthening exercise program improves the inspiratory muscle strength and functional capacity in patients with CKD undergoing Haemodialysis.
