Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the intervention effects of fracture liaison service (FLS)-based intervention in elderly patients with meniscus injury, to provide reference for clinical rehabilitation.Methods:A total of 86 elderly patients with meniscus injury from February 2018 to October 2019 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi ′an Jiaotong University were divided into experimental group and control group according to random number table method. There were 43 cases in each group.The control group was given routine nursing, and the experimental group implemented FLS-based nursing intervention on the basis of the control group. The clinical effects were compared between the two groups by using knee function, knee joint mobility and degree of frailty. Results:Finally, 38 cases were included in the experimental group and 41 cases in the control group. There was no significant difference in knee function, knee joint mobility and degree of frailty between the two groups at discharge ( P>0.05). At 1, 3 months after discharge, the knee scores and knee joint mobility were (75.37 ± 4.68) points, (90.34 ± 3.02) points and (96.68 ± 8.11)°, (119.11 ± 7.92)° in the experimental group, higher than those in the control group (73.17 ± 3.92) points, (87.76 ± 2.93) points and (91.76 ± 7.75)°, (108.61 ± 7.72)°, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.26-5.96, all P<0.05). The knee function scores and knee joint mobility of the two groups changed with time ( F=264.33, 279.54, both P<0.05). There were interaction effects between groups and time in the knee joint mobility of the two groups ( F=6.12, P<0.05). At 1, 3, 6 months after discharge, the physiological dimension scores and frailty total scores were 5.08 ± 1.34, 4.74 ± 1.10, 4.13 ± 0.88 and 8.32 ± 1.50, 7.82 ± 1.31, 6.82 ± 0.95 in the experimental group, lower than those in the control group 5.68 ± 1.15, 5.22 ± 0.85, 5.02 ± 0.76, 9.05 ± 1.28, 8.40 ± 0.89, 8.18 ± 0.90, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.15-6.57, all P<0.05). At 6 months after discharge, the psychological and cognitive dimension scores were 0.98 ± 0.30 and 0.45 ± 0.24 in the experimental group, lower than those in the control group 1.32 ± 0.37 and 0.59 ± 0.22, the differences were statistically significant ( t=4.49, 2.82, both P<0.05). The physiological and cognitive dimension scores and total scores of the two groups changed with time ( F=30.61, 31.72, 38.50, all P<0.05). There were interaction effects between groups and time in the physiological demension scores and the frailty total scores of the two groups ( F=2.86, 4.03, both P<0.05). Conclusions:FLS-based intervention can promote the rehabilitation of knee joint function and alleviate the degree of frailty of elderly patients with meniscus injury.
