RCT testing virtual reality-assisted exercise in hospitalized older adults found no results reported

This randomized controlled trial enrolled hospitalized adults aged 60+ to test whether adding virtual reality exercise (VRAGMENT program) to conventional multimodal exercise would improve lactate kinetics, functional status, frailty, sarcopenia risk, perceived exertion, and quality of life. The study measured lactate concentrations before and after low-intensity resistance exercise on Days 1 and 7, and assessed functional independence, frailty, sarcopenia risk, and quality of life at baseline and Day 7. No results, effect sizes, or sample size were reported in the provided material.
