U.S., June 26 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07036341) titled 'Rehabilitation After a Hip Fracture: the Effects of Dietary Protein and Exercise on Bone and Muscle Health and Quality of Life' on May 09.
Brief Summary: Hip fractures often lead to functional limitations, loss of independence, weight loss and decreased well-being. Only half of the patients regain their functional level and 24% die within the following year. Financial consequences are significant due to costly surgery and long-term care. Hip fracture incidence is expected to increase sharply due to the ageing population, reducing accessibility to and quality of rehabilitation care. Therefore, optimizing treatment is essential.
