The Effect of Magnetic Stimulation on Low Back Pain Relief and Muscle Mass Maintenance in Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD)

To determine the effectiveness of magnetic stimulation application on alleviating back pain and maintaining muscle mass in patients with end-stage renal disease.

Inclusion: Adults aged 19 years or older; Patients diagnosed with end-stage renal failure and receiving dialysis treatment more than three times a week; Back pain intensity of 4 points or higher on the visual analogue scale (VAS); Those with cognitive function that can clearly indicate NRS with a score of 23 points or higher, the criterion for determining cognitive impairment on the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) [14]; Those who voluntarily decided to participate in this clinical trial after receiving a detailed explanation and fully understanding it and gave written consent to comply with the precautions.

Exclusion: If it is difficult to participate in the study due to serious mental illness (e.g. schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, etc.) or psychological instability; Patients with severe neurological illness (e.g. stroke, severe dementia, etc.); Those with poor general condition due to unstable cardiovascular, digestive, respiratory, or endocrine systems, or severe internal medical illness such as systemic infection; If there are contraindications to magnetic stimulation; Patients with implanted medical devices (e.g. pacemakers); Metal objects are inserted into the skull; A wound on the skin at the attachment site; History of epilepsy; Cervical pain or musculoskeletal disease; Pregnant and lactating women; If the pain is due to trauma; Patients participating in other therapeutic clinical trials or those who have participated in other therapeutic clinical trials within the past 30 days (observational studies are not relevant).
