Assessment

Primary outcomes

Change in serum 25(OH)D levels from admission to discharge.

Key secondary outcomes

1. Improvement rate of vitamin D deficiency (proportion of patients with serum 25(OH)D >= 20 ng/mL at discharge)
2. Serum 25(OH)D level at discharge
3. Changes in Functional Independence Measure (FIM) scores
4. Change in Skeletal Muscle Mass Index (SMI)
5. Incidence of adverse events, defined as decreased renal function (eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m2) or hypercalcemia (serum calcium >= 10.5 mg/dL)
