Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study is to investigate whether an extra intake of energy and protein in the form of nutritional drinks twice a day for 12 weeks can improve muscle strength, muscle mass, quality of life and the implementation of rehabilitation in elderly patients at nutritional risk who are discharged to municipal rehabilitation


Clinical Trial Description

The study is a single-blind randomised study where the subjects will be randomly divided into two groups. A group that must consume nutritional drinks in connection with their rehabilitation and a group that must do nothing extra. Based on a statistical power calculation, we will include a total of 124 patients. In connection with the experiment, different data will be collected three times, in connection with the discharge from the hospital, after 6 weeks via the telephone and after 12 weeks. During a home visit. Here, various questionnaires will have to be answered and data on muscle strength and muscle mass will be collected. Further CRP, vitamin D status and EPA/DHA content in blood will be assessed. In addition, data is collected from the patient's medical record about e.g. readmissions ;
