Lowering repeat ER visits after injury in older adults
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial looks at ways to help people 60 and older have fewer repeat ER or hospital admissions after an injury. You may be a candidate if this is your first (main) hospital admission for a traumatic injury and your care team confirms the study’s specific injury admission type.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 60 years old or older
- Your hospital admission is for G60 activation and admission (your care team can confirm)
- This admission is your primary (main) hospital admission for an injury
- You were admitted for a traumatic injury (not a non-traumatic problem)
- This is an index/first qualifying injury admission, not a later repeat admission
- You are not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
