- OBJECTIVES: Patients with chronic end-stage renal diseases have decreased physical fitness. This physical deconditioning is relative but the consequences in daily life are related to functional thresholds. The main purpose of this study was to gather information about physical performance, physical fitness and activity in predialysis patients. A second aim was to investigate the possibility of identifying patients at risk of physical deconditioning using clinical tests. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Fifty-five predialysis patients with a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of
