NCT ID NCT07536035
First seen Apr 22, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares a new way of organizing hospital care, called an Acute Medical Unit (AMU), to standard hospital wards for older adults with sudden illnesses like infections, falls, or COPD flare-ups. Researchers want to see if the AMU reduces time spent in the hospital, improves quality of life, and lowers costs. About 220 participants in Singapore will be tracked to find out who benefits most from this approach.
