NCT ID: NCT05639231 Recruiting - Sarcopenia Clinical Trials

An INtervention TO Improve MOBility of Older Hospitalized Patients

INTOMOB
Start date: December 15, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Low mobility during an acute care hospitalization is very frequent, particularly among older patients, and associated with adverse outcomes, such as persistent functional decline, institutionalization and death. However, increasing hospital mobility remains challenging because of the multiple existing barriers. The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of a multilevel intervention to increase hospital mobility, which addresses modifiable barriers and facilitators and does not require unavailable additional resources. This study aims to answer whether this intervention can improve mobility and patient-relevant outcomes such as life-space mobility and functional status. The multilevel intervention will target: 1. The patients, who will receive an information booklet, a customizable diary, an exercise booklet and an iPad with access to the videos of the exercise booklet. 2. The healthcare professionals (nursing staff and physicians) who will complete an e-learning, receive an oral presentation on the intervention, and receive a "mobility checklist" that reminds them of what they should assess daily regarding mobility. 3. The hospital environment, where posters will be hung in the wards, including walking itineraries, on topics of interest to older adults. In a first phase, the intervention will be pilot-tested in one ward of each hospital. The intervention will then be adapted based on patient and healthcare professional feedback. In a second phase, the intervention will be tested in a cluster randomized controlled trial, and compared to standard of care.

Impact on General Functionality of an Immediate Prosthetic Functionalization Protocol in People Over 70 Years of Age With Deficient Removable Prostheses

Start date: November 3, 2020
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Title: Evaluation of the impact on general functionality of the application of an immediate prosthetic functionalization protocol, in patients with deficient removable prostheses, compared with the conventional treatment that is delivered at the secondary level of the health system, to people over 70 years of age. Introduction: Sarcopenia and malnutrition are closely involved in frailty. To prevent them it is important to assess oral function. "Oral fragility" manifests with specific signs or symptoms, among which are loss of occlusion due to tooth loss and chewing difficulty. To recover from it, it is important to restore function by placing a dental prosthesis in the event of tooth loss. In Chile, a large percentage of patients who are referred to secondary care to perform new prosthetic treatment, lives in conditions of less oral functionality and enters waiting lists that can take years, with a silent impact on general functionality. Falls are a public health problem with a significant economic cost, being the second cause of death worldwide. One of the causes is sarcopenia and it has been studied that the decrease in the number of teeth and the occlusal posterior support region may be risk factors for decreased gait speed, an objective measurement of fall risk. It has been studied that the decrease in the number of teeth causes a reduction in: total muscle mass, walking speed and lower quality of life. Hypothesis: The recovery of immediate functionality in deficient prostheses in patients 70 years of age and older will have a positive and rapid impact on general functionality and on their assessment of oral health related quality of life. General objective: To evaluate the impact on general functionality of the application of an immediate prosthetic functionalization protocol in patients with deficient removable prostheses, compared with conventional treatment, at the secondary level of the health system, in patients over 70 years of age. Methodology: randomized, double-blind clinical trial with two groups of 62 patients each: experimental and control. The intervention will consist of recovering prosthetic function in one session, before conventional rehabilitation vs. the control group that will receive conventional rehabilitation. Measurements will include manual grip strength measurements, made with a Jamar dynamometer, timed up and go test, before and after prosthetic treatments and quality of life related to oral health through Ohip 7sp. Descriptive statistics will be applied, through the registration of frequency and contingency tables. To compare hand grip strength, the Pearson's Correlation will be used; for risk of pre and post fall, the t-test will be applied for 2 related samples; for quality of life before and after intervention, Chi2 will be used; changes in grip strength, fall risk and quality of life, between the different groups according to the Eichner index, one-way ANOVA will be applied, for related samples. Results: A short-term improvement is expected in patients whose functionality will be recovered, which, being a simple technique of competence of the general dentist, could be applied in primary care, without loss of valuable time before attention is achieved, at the secondary level for rehabilitation with new prostheses.

NCT ID: NCT05411393 Enrolling by invitation - Frailty Clinical Trials

Synergizing Home Health Rehabilitation Therapy

Start date: October 6, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this project is to pilot test an ADL (activities of daily living)-enhanced program as an adjuvant therapy to usual home health rehabilitation to improve patient outcomes. The project will compare the ADL-enhanced program plus usual care with usual care using an RCT design in home health patients.

NCT ID: NCT05331092 Not yet recruiting - Functional Status Clinical Trials

Effects of Cryotherapy on Ankle Function

Start date: May 30, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The ankle joint is commonly used and also stricken by high loads and injuries in sports. One technique in emphasis is cryotherapy, a physiotherapeutical intervention characterized by the use of low temperatures for tissue trauma's rehabilitation. Several studies analysed the effects of cryotherapy and brought important results related to pain and strength reduction, also to muscle contraction speed reduction. Although, considering the risk-benefit from de intervention it's pertinent to observe the presence of deleterious effects, especially the ones that impact on motor function. This scenario has been brought by scientists and currently the main gap from this theme resides on the repercussions of the technique application on functional answers
