Objective:To construct an ultra-early limb movement program for elderly hip fracture surgery patients based on evidence-based practice and the Delphi method.Methods:From May to December 2023, the PIPOST Model (population, intervention, professional, outcome, setting, type of evidence) was used to develop evidence-based questions. Relevant databases were searched to obtain, summarize, and evaluate evidence related to ultra-early limb movement after hip fracture surgery in elderly patients. A draft of the movement program was created with the search timeline set until June 1, 2023. A total of 29 experts were invited to participate in two rounds of Delphi expert consultation to finalize the ultra-early limb movement program for elderly hip fracture surgery patients.Results:A total of 20 studies were included, consisting of six guidelines, four expert consensuses, three systematic reviews, and seven original research articles. The response rates for the two rounds of Delphi expert consultation were 100.00% (29/29) and 86.21% (25/29). The expert authority coefficients were 0.931 and 0.920, and the Kendall coordination coefficients were 0.205 and 0.112 (all P<0.01). The final ultra-early limb movement program for elderly hip fracture surgery patients included four modules and 39 operational items. Conclusions:This study develops an evidence-based, expert-validated ultra-early limb movement program for elderly hip fracture surgery patients, demonstrating its necessity, scientific basis, and practicality. The program provides a reference and guidance for clinical staff in facilitating ultra-early movement for hip fracture patients post-surgery.

Background The average sleep quality of mariners during ocean voyages is notably worse than that of the general populace, and the incidence of sleep disorders among them is higher. Sleep disorders closely associate with fatigue and cognitive decline, increasing error and accident rates, and are a major safety hazard in marine navigation. At present, research on factors influencing the sleep quality of mariners during ocean voyages in China is limited and needs further investigation. Objective To investigate the sleep quality of mariners during ocean voyages and analyze its influencing factors, in order to provide reference for constructing sleep intervention plans and mitigating their sleep disorders. Methods Using convenience cluster sampling, a questionnaire survey was carried out in 408 crew members of a fleet who returned from a voyage on March 21, 2024. The questionnaires included a general information questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) , and Self Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), and the data were analyzed by SPSS 26.0 software. Results A total of 399 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective recovery rate of 97.8%. The mean score of PSQI for the mariners during ocean voyages was (6.41±2.44), with 33.6% (134/399) of the mariners reporting sleep disorders. The PSQI scores varied by family structures (t=2.235, P=0.031), labor types (F=3.789, P=0.023), noise exposure (F=53.218, P<0.001), dietary patterns (F=63.311, P<0.001), exercise habits (F=16.416, P<0.001), and anxiety states (t=5.963,P<0.001). The results of linear regression showed that incomplete family structure (β=0.102, P=0.010), noise exposure (β=0.323, P<0.001), and anxiety (β=0.117, P=0.006) positively associated with the total score of PSQI, while dietary patterns (β=-0.331, P<0.001) and exercise habits (β=-0.147, P<0.001) negatively associated with the total PSQI score, and the 5 variables jointly explained 38.9% of the total variation in the PSQI score (F=37.159, P<0.01). Conclusion The sleep quality of mariners during ocean voyages is relatively low and the incidence of sleep disorders is relatively high, which is jointly influenced by factors such as family structure, noise exposure, dietary habits, exercise habits, and anxiety.
