Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical value of health empowerment theory applied to postoperative rehabilitation management of elderly patients with femoral fracture. Methods A total of 94 cases of elderly patients with femoral fractures hospitalized in the Second Hospital of Jilin University from March 2015 to February 2017 were selected as the research objects. Using random number table method,the patients were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group, with 47 cases in each group. Patients in the control group received routine nursing, and patients in the observation group received nursing with health empowerment theory. Perceived empowerment level, the total incidence of postoperative complications, grade A healing rate of incisions and the situation of hip joint function of patients were evaluated and compared between the two groups. Results There were interaction among different times and groups of the perceived empowerment between two groups, and the differences were statistically significant (P< 0.01). There was no significant difference in the total incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups (P> 0.05). The grade A healing rate of patients in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The Harris score of patients that six months after surgery in two groups all elevated, and there was significant difference compared with the score before surgery (P<0.05), and the Harris score of patients in the observation group was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). The good rate of hip joint function of patients in observation group that 6 months after surgery was significantly higher than that of control group (P< 0.05). Conclusions The application of health empowerment theory in elderly patients with femoral fractures is favorable for postoperative rehabilitation, and it can reduce the patients' postoperative pain and improve their hip joint function.
