Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary endpoint is the improvement in the Demmi score (mobility score) as a function of physical activity, as measured by the ActivPAL.<br>What form of physical activity is most effective in improving patients' mobility until discharge?
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
2. What is the course of physical activity during acute treatment after a proximal femur fracture?<br>3. What influence does physical activity before the fracture event have on the improvement of mobility, functionality and physical activity during the inpatient stay?<br>4.Is there a threshold of physical activity to improve mobility at discharge?<br>5. Is there a difference in improvement of mobility and physical activity between patients with femoral neck fracture and those with pertrochanteric femur fracture?
