Abstract

Exercise program on hip fracture patients is important for recovering from functional deficit after operation, and disuse prevention for a maintenance phase. Previous reports demonstrated that specific exercise therapy were effective in consequence of this fracture patient, but the review showed there was not enough evidence in each exercise program. Multidisciplinary rehabilitation approach was recommended after hip fracture surgery.
