Summary

This study is observing 2,500 adults with chronic diseases who receive inpatient Traditional, Complementary and Integrative Medicine (TCIM) at three German hospitals. The therapy combines approaches like hyperthermia, exercise, herbal medicine, and dietary changes. Researchers will track quality of life and health status to see how well this routine care works in real-world settings.
