Summary

This study looks at whether measuring fat inside the muscles with ultrasound can help predict how well older adults recover physical function after a hospital stay. Researchers will follow 115 people aged 75 and older in a rehabilitation program. No treatment is given; the goal is to learn if muscle fat affects recovery, which could guide future care.
