About this trial
In the sponsor's words
Objectives: This parallel RCT investigated the effect of a new nursing intervention (Mobility Enhancing Nursing Intervention - MFP) designed to improve the rehabilitation programs' outcomes and patients' quality of life. Intervention: The IG combined standard care with the 30-day mobility-enhancing-nursing intervention (MFP). MFP placed patients on a mattress on the floor and used constant tactile-kinaesthetic stimulation in everyday tasks to increase spatial orientation, to teach patients to get up safely and to move independently. Primary and secondary outcome measures: Outcomes were defined as functionality (Extended Barthel Index, EBI), quality of life (WHOQoL), and fall-related self-efficacy (FES-I).
