[Three-case reports--a program of strength training for home health care on frail elderly patients with protein rich supplement just after the training].
We have a program of strength training for home health care with protein rich supplement just after the training on frail elderly patients. Three cases (80-90 years old) received a new good taste protein rich supplement. They were also frail patients after acute clinical treatments, and were able to go home directly against their physical moving problems for daily life. We performed cardio-pulmonary and swallowing function, energy intake, parameters of muscle strength and the status for daily life before and after the training. Practical results were very different among the patients. But, the status for daily life of all was better than before. It was not clear that the new supplement was effective for the parameters of muscle strength, or not. But a trial for programs with thus foods should be an option for promoting to home health care after hospitalization in frail elderly.
