NCT ID NCT07478367

First seen Mar 24, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study looks at whether serious muscle weakness, known to affect ICU patients, also happens to people in regular hospital wards. Researchers will follow 600 adults hospitalized for acute illness, half with organ failure and half without, to see how often weakness occurs and what raises the risk. The goal is to improve awareness and help doctors catch and treat this condition earlier.
