Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether a multicomponent physical exercise program improves functional and cognitive capacity in hospitalized older adults compared to the usual hospital care. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does a multicomponent physical exercise program improve functional and cognitive capacity?
* Is there a difference between a multicomponent physical exercise program and usual care regarding functional and cognitive outcomes after an acute hospitalization?

Researchers will compare a multicomponent physical exercise program (containing strength, balance, and walking exercises) to the usual care of the hospital to see if the program is better at maintaining or enhancing functional and cognitive outcomes

Participants will:

* Participate in multicomponent physical exercise program or receive usual care. The multicomponent group will complete the program daily for the entire hospitalization period;
* Perform functional and cognitive tests at the beginning and end of hospitalization;
* Be contacted by researchers 3, 6, and 12 months after hospital discharge.

OTHER

Multicomponent physical exercise training

The subjects will perform one session per day of multicomponent physical exercise training, consisting of strength, power, balance, and walking exercises. The program will have progressive intensity and volume, adapted to the frailty level of the patient. The frailty level will be screened by the Short Physical Performance Battery. Each session will consist of two strength exercises for the upper limbs and one to three for the lower limbs. Also, one exercise for balance, and walking. Participants will be instructed to perform the concentric phase of the movement as fast as possible, since a good quality of movement is maintained, and the eccentric phase in two seconds. An expert researcher will supervise the entire session.
