| Core Tip |
This paper shows that developing a supervised exercise protocol for KTRs is a useful and safe non-pharmacologic contribution to usual after-transplant treatments, which can improve the physiological variables related to physical fitness and cardiovascular risks without consequences on renal function. Our study is an example of collaborative working between transplant centres, sports medicine and exercise facilities, aimed to apply the concepts of “exercise is medicine”. |
