Can a boost of exercise and food after ICU get patients home faster?
NCT ID NCT06159868
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether giving patients extra physiotherapy and nutrition support after leaving the intensive care unit (ICU) is helpful and practical. 60 adults who had been on a breathing machine for at least 4 days took part. The main goal was to see if a larger study could be done, not to prove the treatment works.
