Summary

This trial will take the form of a feasibility study; designed to assess the feasibility of a proposed future clinical trial in this setting. This proposed future clinical trial is proposed to assess the impact of physical activity, in the form of specialised chair based physical activity interventions, on the physiological, psychological, cognitive, social and emotional health, and functional capacity of geriatric populations with pre-existing frailty within a clinical hospital ward setting; recognising health as a holistic concept incorporating a multitude of inter-related dimensions. This feasibility study is single-centre (taking place in the Harborne Ward of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham, Mindelsohn Way, Edgbaston, Birmingham, United Kingdom).
