Timed Up and Go clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

NCT ID: NCT01943773 Completed - Physical Therapy Clinical Trials

Functional Prehabilitation and Major Elective Surgery

Start date: March 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Purpose: To compare post-operative functional outcomes in patients undergoing preoperative functional prehabilitation versus standard of care preoperative management in older adults undergoing major elective operations. Hypothesis: Older adults undergoing preoperative functional prehabilitation (nine sessions of home physical therapy over three weeks) will have improved physical function and reduced delirium in comparison to usual preoperative care following major abdominal and thoracic operations. Specific Aims: (#1) To compare the difference in the timed up-and-go, Mini Mental Status Exam (MMSE), the de Morton Mobility Index, Modified Physical Performance Test (MPPT), and short physical performance battery scores in the control and intervention groups at the preoperative and initial assessment timepoints. (#2) To compare the difference in the timed up-and-go, Mini Mental Status Exam (MMSE), the de Morton Mobility Index, Modified Physical Performance Test (MPPT), and short physical performance battery scores in the control and intervention groups at the 60-days postoperative and the initial assessment timepoints. (#3)To compare the rates of ICU delirium and need for post-discharge institutionalization in patients in the control and interventions groups. (#4) To compare post-operative complications
