The Impact of Exercises and Physical Activity Programs on Paediatric Patients Undergoing Haemodialysis in Africa: A Scoping Review
: The findings underscore the importance of incorporating exercise into the standard care of paediatric patients undergoing haemodialysis to facilitate better health outcomes. The fact that only two relevant studies were found highlights a narrow regional scope within Africa as both studies originated from a single country. Further research is needed to develop and implement effective exercise interventions tailored to other countries in Africa.
