Recover Working Life - Back on the Job After Acute Illness

The project will investigate levels of physical, psychosocial functions and inflammatory biomarkers in a group of patients who by self-assessment indicates a perceived risk of decline in work ability after hospital admittance. The patients will be randomised to an intervention of physical training and followed for development in functional levels compared with patients not receiving the intervention. The goal is to validate measures of work ability assessment in connection to hospital admittance. The validation will provide important information about the quality of rehabilitation services that many municipalities provides through private suppliers - and where the effect on work ability lacks evidence-based documentation. The project aims to link patient treatment to recovery and an optimal return to everyday life, comprising the patients work life. The frame is a multi-sectoral accepted platform for assessing patients' needs for care, treatment and rehabilitation, which is based on a professional assessment of the efficacy and quality of, varies heath care related deliveries. The acceptance of a multi-sectoral creates a need for accessible clinical tests of physical and mental functioning, combined with biomarkers to identify patients need. The project investigates whether it is possible to identify patients (age 18 to 60 year) with an increased risk of losing their ability to work after discharge from an acute hospitalisation. And to evaluate whether measurable effects on inflammation and functional levels of labour oriented training program can be identified.
