Scientists track why some older patients never regain strength after hospital stays

NCT ID NCT07225257

Summary

This study aims to understand why some older adults don't fully recover their strength and mobility after surviving a serious illness like sepsis or acute lung injury. Researchers will follow 150 patients aged 40+ for two years after hospital discharge, measuring their muscle strength, walking ability, and daily function. The study will also collect small muscle samples from some participants to look for cellular changes that might explain poor recovery.
