However, the effectiveness of mobile app in delivering home-based rehabilitation program to elderly patients with hip fracture is unclear. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Objective: The aim of this study was to test the effectiveness of mobile app in delivering home-based rehabilitation program for improving functional outcomes and reducing caregiver stress with enhancing adherence among the elderly patients with hip fracture. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Methods: A randomized controlled trial with an intervention period of two months was performed. Eligible participants were randomized into either experimental group with home-based rehabilitation program using a mobile app or control group with home-based rehabilitation program using an exercise pamphlet. Primary outcomes were Modified Functional Ambulatory Category (MFAC), Elderly Mobility Scale (EMS) and Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS). Secondary outcomes were exercise adherence and Modified Caregiver Strain Index (M-CSI). The outcomes were collected at pre-discharge training session, one month and two months after hospital discharge. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Results: A total of 50 participants were enrolled, with 19 participants in the experimental group and 20 participants in the control group. Eleven participants had withdrawn from the study. The experimental group showed higher exercise adherence than the control group in first month ([Formula: see text]). There were no between-group differences in MFAC, EMS, LEFS and M-CSI at the first month and second month. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Conclusion: Use of the mobile app improved exercise adherence, yet it did not improve physical performance, self-efficacy and reduce caregiver stress when compared to a standard home rehabilitation program for elderly patients with hip fracture. Further studies to investigate the benefits of mobile apps are required.
