Sumario: | OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of high-quality care on limb function recovery and quality of life (QOL) after osteoporotic hip fracture (OHF) surgery in the elderly. METHODS: 116 elderly patients with OHF enrolled in our hospital from January 2017 to December 2019 were assigned into observation group (high-quality care, n=58) and control group (routine care, n=58). After one month of intervention, Harris Hip Score (HHS) and Barthel Index (BI) were used to evaluating limb function and self-care ability, pain intensity numerical rating scale (PINRS) for pain assessment, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), and self-rating depression scale (SDS) for emotion assessment. Besides, postsurgical complications, QOL and patient satisfaction were examined. RESULTS: HHS and BI were higher in observation group (P<0.05); PINRS, SAS and SDS were lower in observation group (P<0.05); incidence of postsurgical complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05); QOL and patient satisfaction in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: High-quality care promotes the recovery of limb function, the QOL and the satisfaction of elderly patients. |
