Moving After Hip Fracture
A wearable activity monitor and weekly phone coaching for older adults after a broken hip.
This study gave older adults a small activity monitor and a weekly coaching call for twelve weeks after surgery for a broken hip. People who took part walked more each day than people who had usual care, and most said the calls helped them stay motivated.
The study has finished. The summary of findings and the final newsletter can be downloaded from this page.
