Effect of a Multicomponent Home-Based Physical Therapy Intervention on Ambulation After Hip Fracture in Older Adults

Abstract: IMPORTANCE Disability persists after hip fracture in older persons. Current rehabilitation may not be sufficient to restore ability to walk in the community. OBJECTIVE To compare a multicomponent home-based physical therapy intervention (training) with an active control on ability to walk in the community. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Parallel, 2-group randomized clinical trial conducted at 3 US clinical centers

“…More work is needed to establish the most responsive measures of outcomes in older people after fall-related fracture. The possible impact on some measures of balance and mobility reinforces the findings of two previous studies 12,17 reporting benefits of home exercise after hip fracture. In all three studies, the exercises were primarily "functionally relevant," that is the exercise was undertaken in weight-bearing positions rather than more traditional lying or seated exercises.…”

“…8 There are strong effects on mobility and function from intensive supervised center-based exercise interventions, 9 , 10 but effectiveness of more economically viable home-based programs is inconsistent. 8 , 11 , 12 One high-quality trial found a 6-month home exercise program, taught by a physiotherapist and undertaken with minimal supervision, improved mobility in older people after hip fracture. 13 This built on previous trials in which home exercise programs taught by physiotherapists improved short-term mobility outcomes after hip fracture.…”

“…Globally, hip fracture is a frequent cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly among elderly people [ 1 ]. Elderly patients with osteoporosis exhibit a high incidence of intertrochanteric fractures, such that one in three patients die from various complications caused by fracture within 1 year after injury [ 2 ].…”
