Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Early physical activity

    Activity data collected in the early phase will be the exposure variable. Amount of minutes patients are physically active.

    Continuous measure of physical activity during day three to ten of rehabilitation

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Late physical activity

    Continuous measure of physical activity during day three to ten before discharge from rehabilitation

  • Functional Independence Measure (discharge)

    Discharge from rehabilitation (3 months)

  • Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) (admission)

    Admission

  • Comorbidities at admission

    Admission

  • Early Functional Ability (EFA) score

    Admission

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Complications during rehabilitation

    Rehabilitation period (3 months)

Study Arms (1)

Activity monitor group

No intervention will be applied. All patients will have activity monitors placed at the distal part of the femur and on the torso. Normal rehabilitation will be performed as usual.

Other: Activity monitor group

Interventions

No intervention will be applied. All included patients will be monitored with body-worn physical activity monitors during two periods.
