Home exercise program using technology for frail patients
This study tests a home-based exercise program using technology (like a smartphone app) to help frail patients get stronger and more independent. The goal is to see if exercising at home can improve your physical function and quality of life.

This trial tests a home-based exercise program using video games (exergaming) to help older adults become less frail. A family member or friend supports you, and the program is designed to be safe and fun.
This study tests a personalized home exercise program to help older adults regain strength and independence after a hospital stay. If you are 60 or older, had a recent hospital stay of at least 2 days, and are at risk of losing function, this program may help you stay active and recover better.
This trial tests a special exercise program designed for older adults who are frail or have muscle loss. The goal is to help improve strength and daily function, and participating may help you stay independent longer.
This study tests whether providing meal delivery and an exercise plan can help people who are homebound and frail stay stronger. It is mainly for adults who can safely participate and follow simple instructions.
This trial studies whether a structured exercise program can improve health and function in frail adults age 70 and older. It may help you build strength, energy, and mobility if you meet frailty and safety requirements.
This trial tests whether a Spanish health-clinic–guided exercise program can improve frailty in people who are starting to become frail (“pre-frail”). It may help you build strength and walking ability through supervised physical activity.
