Exercise is associated with numerous health benefits, even in patients who are acutely hospitalized (e.g. intensive care) or with chronic treatment (e.g. hemodialysis). However, to successfully implement this type of intervention, it is of paramount importance to develop adapted ergocycle that are precise, financially accessible and meet the clinical and scientific needs. This is the objective of the current project.
