They were assessed the physical fitness prior to start the program and reassessed at the4th, 8th and 12th week. The muscle strength was assessed by using digital hand grip dynamometer and digital leg dynamometer. The QOLwas evaluated by using SF36 Thai version. The temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP, DBP), and oxygen saturation were additionally evaluated. Results: The 30 PD patients with 16 males and 14 females were enrolled in this study. The mean age was 51.57 ± 11.83 years (23-69 years). The mean duration of dialysis was 21.47 ± 19.10 months (3-72 months). The variable before and after start program at the 4th, 8th and 12th week were shown improvement with significant difference in SBP, DBP and SF 36 in aspects of social role functioning, emotional role functioning, bodily pain, vitality and the total score.
