Every joint in the body has a normal range of motion. Maintaining the normal opening of the joints is achieved through movement. ROM exercises reduce contractures and are very important in terms of helping to preserve muscle movements. ROM exercises are an inexpensive method that can be applied in any environment, either as a group or individually, covering all muscle-joint groups. Individuals with disabilities can perform ROM exercises individually or receive support from healthcare professionals. It provides support to venous return by increasing muscle strength in patients who are immobilized for a long time.Based on this information, the aim of our study is to investigate the effect of lower extremity ROM exercises during hemodialysis on hypotension, fatigue and hemodialysis comfort.The patients will be divided into the intervention group (n=32) in which 20 minutes of ROM exercise was applied and the control group (n=32) in which routine nursing care was given. For the sample calculation of the study, G power analysis was performed, type 1 error was 0.05; type 2 error 0.20; With a power of 0.80, a minimum sample size of 64 people for the experimental and control groups. The case group will be given lower extremity ROM exercises for a total of two weeks. Each individual in the case group will have lower extremity ROM exercises, each of which will last 20 minutes, at the beginning of the session and at the beginning of the hour until the end of the session. "Piper's Fatigue Scale" and Hemodialysis Comfort Scale" in the data collection form will be applied again at the end of the 1st and 2nd weeks after the sessions have started. The vital signs of the individual will be followed and recorded at each session., conditionsModule conditions: Hemodialysis, designModule studyType: INTERVENTIONAL, phases: NA, designInfo allocation: RANDOMIZED, interventionModel: PARALLEL, interventionModelDescription: The patients will be divided into the intervention group (n=32) in which 20 minutes of ROM exercise was applied and the control group (n=32) in which routine nursing care was given.
