What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a Multicomponent Exercise Program with Virtual Reality (MEP-VR) compared to a standard Multicomponent Exercise Program (MEP-only) and usual care in improving functional and cognitive outcomes in hospitalized older adults. Participants aged 75 and older will be randomly assigned to one of three groups, with the intervention taking place over four consecutive days. The study will assess whether the addition of virtual reality enhances the benefits of physical exercise and cognitive stimulation for this population.
