Study Summary
The investigators plan to test an innovative, home-based, short duration, high intensity exercise program designed for application in the immediate post-hospitalization period in older Veterans. Preliminary data suggest a more intensive approach to physical therapy in older adults after hospitalization is safe and maximizes mobility more than usual care. The Veterans participating in the high intensity exercise program will receive therapy utilizing higher resistance exercises. Outcomes from this group will be compared to data collected from the patients receiving standard, lower resistance therapies.
Primary Outcome
Will be assessed at the subject's self selected speed for each participant over 4 meters. Faster walking indicates capacity for performance of certain activities (e.g. crossing a street before the light changes).
Interventions
- BEHAVIORAL Progressive High Intensity Therapy (PHIT)
- BEHAVIORAL Usual Care (UC)
