Brief Summary:
This study intends to irradiate the acupoints of both lower extremities of hemodialysis patients with far-infrared therapeutic apparatus to explore its effect on foot blood circulation, peripheral artery occlusion disease (PAOD) symptoms and ankle-brachial index (Ankle-Brachial Index, ABI) value.
Detailed Description:
After irradiating the lower extremity acupoints of hemodialysis patients with far-infrared rays, it is expected to improve the blood circulation of the lower extremities of hemodialysis patients, thereby improving the symptoms of indirect claudication and raising the ankle-brachial index to the normal range, and reducing the incidence of peripheral arterial disease in hemodialysis patients. The results of this study can provide an empirical reference for future clinical care.
