Study name Randomized controlled trial with parallel design on the effects of maximum voluntary velocity training in patients after femoral neck fracture surgery
Methods Randomised controlled trial; double‐blind
Participants Aged 65 or above; femoral neck or trochanteric fracture treated surgically; reside in home; independent pre‐fracture and the ability to walk indoors; New Mobility Score (NMS) of 2 or more
Aim: 26 participants
Interventions 1. Evidence‐based standardised rehabilitation programme plus high‐velocity knee extension and hip abduction exercises 2 weeks after surgery
2. Evidence‐based standardised rehabilitation programme plus low‐velocity knee extension and hip abduction exercises 2 weeks after surgery
Outcomes Follow‐up: not reported
Primary outcome: knee extension maximum angular velocity of fracture side
Secondary outcomes
  • Knee extension strength

  • 30‐sec chair stand test

  • Timed Up and Go test

  • 10m maximum walking speed

  • New mobility score
