- We recommend salt reduction to a maximum intake of 5 g daily. (1B)
- We suggest that fluid restriction, together with salt reduction, should be advised. Fluid restriction should be individualized considering urine output, fluid gains between dialysis and ultrafiltration. (2D)
- We suggest that exercise should be considered as a strategy to reduce BP in those receiving haemodialysis. (2D)
- We suggest that a combination of aerobic and resistance exercise at least 3 times per week of moderate to vigorous intensity, either during or in between dialysis, would be most likely to reduce BP in haemodialysis patients. (2B)
- We suggest that haemodialysis units consider adoption of strategies to support patient adherence to lifestyle changes. (2D)
