What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)

Summary

This pilot study tested whether a high-density sit-to-stand exercise program is feasible for older adults recovering from a hip fracture. Thirty patients aged 60 and older performed supervised chair rise exercises twice a week for 8 weeks. The goal was to see if the training could improve leg strength without causing lasting hip pain. Researchers measured adherence, pain levels, and dropouts to determine if the program is practical for wider use.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
high-density sit-to-stand functional resistance training
What this could lead to
If successful, this training approach could become a standard part of hip fracture rehabilitation, helping older adults regain leg strength and mobility more effectively.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early pilot study with only 30 participants and no comparison group. The training may still cause pain or be too difficult for some patients, and results may not apply to all hip fracture patients.
