Abstract:
Objective To explore the current situation and influencing factors of knowledge-attitude-practice (KAP) on early rehabilitation among elderly patients with fracture so as to provide a reference for improving rehabilitation nursing of fracture. Methods A total of 200 elderly inpatients with fracture at Liyuan Hospital of Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology were selected by convenience sampling from July 2016 to Feburay 2017. The current situation of KAP of elderly patients with fracture were investigate by the self-designed early rehabilitation KAP questionnaire for fracture patients. The simple correlation and multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of rehabilitation among elderly patients with fracture. Results The average score of knowledge, attitude and activity behavior on early rehabilitation of elderly patients with fracture was (62.45±1.32), (85.22±1.09) and (68.90±0.78). Simple correlation showed that there were statistically significant differences in the scores of knowledge, attitude and activity behavior of elderly patients with fracture among different education background, the history of fracture, length of hospital stay and whether they received guidance related to fracture (P<0.05). Multiple linear regression revealed that the independent influencing factor of the score of knowledge,attitude and activity behavior on early rehabilitation of elderly patients was the length of hospital stay, education background and whether they received guidance related to fracture respectively (R2=0.594, 0.229, 0.587). Conclusions Elderly patients with fracture were with the low awareness rate of knowledge on early rehabilitation nursing and the low compliance of self-rehabilitation behavior. Nurses in department of orthopedics should improve the special knowledge and skills on rehabilitation and provide a multilevel and multiform guidance of early rehabilitation by combining with the charactertics of low compliance of elderly patients so as to help elderly patients improve the knowledge level of early rehabilitation and promote early rehabilitation practice.
