In conclusion , decrease in muscle strength and muscle mass in older patients is dependent on the type of admission .
HIGHLIGHTSPhysical inactivity during hospitalization is associated with detrimental outcome .Muscle strength and muscle mass decreased in electively admitted older patients .Muscle strength and muscle mass did not change in acutely admitted older patients
ABSTRACT Hospitalization may induce a decrease of muscle strength and muscle mass in older patients due to physical inactivity , malnutrition and diseases , negatively affecting health outcome .
We aim ed to examine the literature on change in muscle strength and muscle mass in older patients during hospitalization .
Randomized clinical trial of multimodal optimization and standard perioperative surgical care
Multimodal optimization of surgical care has been associated with reduced hospital stay and improved physical function . The aim of this r and omized trial was to compare multimodal optimization with st and ard care in patients undergoing colonic resection
