Hidden weakness: study reveals nerve and muscle damage in Non-ICU patients
NCT ID NCT07478367
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study investigates whether serious muscle weakness, known to affect ICU patients, also occurs in people hospitalized outside the ICU. Researchers will follow about 600 adults in Italian hospitals, half with organ failure and half without, to see how often weakness develops and what factors increase risk. The goal is to raise awareness and improve care for this often-overlooked condition.
