About this study

Official title: HIp Fracture REhabilitation Programme for Elderly With Hip Fracture

Objectives: To evaluate the effect of a HIP-REP on the quality and independence in ADL ability (performance), measured with the Assessment of Motor and Process Skills (AMPS) and health-related Quality of Life (QoL).

Hypothesis: The HIP-REP will increase the quality and independence in ADL performance, measured with AMPS and health-related QoL measure.

Read the detailed description

Little is known about the effect of an intersectoral rehabilitation intervention aiming at reducing the decrease in Activities of Daily Living (ADL) ability for elderly with hip fractures. Despite positive surgical outcomes, one-quarter dies within a year after surgery, around eight percent are readmitted to hospital, and just one-third regain their pre-fracture level of physical functioning and ADL ability. After hip fracture, the loss of independence, and further decrease in ADL ability often persists beyond three months after surgery. This increases the risk of social isolation, depression and thus a decrease in QoL. Therefore, the investigators want to evaluate whether an activity-based rehabilitation intervention across sectors is effective and influences this fragile group of patients. The investigators hope to increase the ability to safely and independently perform ADL in elderly with hip fractures, and thereby enhance their health-related QoL.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • HIP-REPOther

    HIP-REP programme is an add on to usual care which includes 5 add on individual activity-focused interventions that will be tailored to the need of elderly with hip fracture in a liaison with the health care professionals. Home visits and follow-up phone call will be a part of programme.

  • Usual careOther

    The elderly in the control group will receive usual rehabilitation. with a focus on mobilization within 24 hours postoperative as an in-patient. In the municipality physiotherapy is offered twice a week for approximately 12 weeks postoperative focusing on neuromotor control over hip, activation and strengthening of muscles as well as increase mobility. When relevant, the elderly receives a home visit by an occupational therapist who assess ADL behaviours, the use of assistive devices and the environmental hazards, preparing and adapting the home environment to prevent falls.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Assessment of Motor and Process Skills

    The assessment measures the quality of a person's activity of daily living task performance. An observational assessment that allows for evaluation of change in motor and process skills and their effect on the ability of an individual to perform complex or instrumental and personal activities of daily living. The instrument consists of 16 motor and 20 process skill abilities that are rated on a 4-point scale. The rating scale is based on the following criteria (Quality of performance); 4 = Competent, 3 = Questionable, 2 = Ineffective or 1 = Severely deficient. In all, 36 discrete ratings of motor and process skills are made during observation.

    Measured: Change frombaseline at motor and process skills 3 and 6 months after baseline testing

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. European Quality of Life Questionnaire

    A survey collecting information about health related quality of life comprising five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems.

    Measured: At baseline and 3 and 6 months after baseline testing

  2. Verbal Rating Scale

    An assessment measuring the intensity of pain. The patient chooses one of those: none, mild, moderate or severe.

    Measured: At baseline and 3 and 6 months after baseline testing

  3. Functional Recovery Score

    Functional Recovery Score assess the level of function with eleven-items comprised of three main components: basic activities of daily living assessed by four items, instrumental activities of daily living assessed by six items, and mobility assessed by one item. Basic activities of daily living comprise 44 percent of the score; instrumental activities of daily living comprise 23 percent, and mobility comprises 33 percent. Complete independence in basic and instrumental activities of daily living and mobility results in a score of 100percent.

    Measured: at baseline and 3 and 6 months after baseline testing

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HIP-REP in people with Hip Fractures, run by Carsten Bogh Juhl at 1 site in Denmark.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assessment of Motor and Process Skills (time frame: Change frombaseline at motor and process skills 3 and 6 months after baseline testing). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04207788, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
