Control Group
Blood tests will be taken at the entrance of dialysis from all participants. Then, in the second hour of hemodialysis, low voltage vibrations will be applied to both calf muscles of the patients for 10 minutes, three times a week for one month.Vibration application will be made with this device 53 Hz head. The vibration application will be performed for 2.5 minutes, starting from the medial side of the gastrocnemius (calf) muscle in both legs and moving it longitudinally from distal to proximal and from back to distal in a straight line within 20 seconds. Then this treatment will be applied to the lateral side of the gastrocnemius muscle for 2.5 minutes. This cycle will be repeated twice. After the one-month application period is completed, blood tests will be taken from all participants at the entrance to hemodialysis.
No intervention will be made on the patients in the control group.
