Abstract
Dialysis is offered to patients with end-stage renal disease as a life-sustaining therapy. However, studies have shown that elderly patients experience high rates of functional disability, hospitalization, institutionalization, and mortality on chronic dialysis therapy, and that the initiation of dialysis is in fact associated with an acceleration in functional decline. These findings have sparked debate about the utility of dialysis for elderly renal patients. In this article, it is proposed that geriatric rehabilitation can prevent, reverse or delay the onset of functional disability and associated adverse outcomes in older dialysis patients, and thus should be incorporated routinely into standard geriatric dialysis care. We outline the causes of disability in elderly dialysis patients, and demonstrate the potential impact of rehabilitation using a case scenario. Models of rehabilitation that have been shown to be effective in improving outcomes for elderly renal and nonrenal populations, including inpatient rehabilitation, exercise training, falls prevention, and home-based models, are reviewed.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
