Abstract:
Objective? To explore the current situation of health empowerment of elderly fragility fracture patients and to analyze its influencing factors. Methods? We selected four Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals randomly in Hengyang. From October 2017 to February 2018, a total of 176 elderly fragility fracture inpatients were investigated with the self-designed general information questionnaire, Elderly Frailty Assessment Scale, Osteoporosis Self-Efficacy Scale (OSES), Health Empowerment Scale for Elderly Patients with Chronic Disease. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of health empowerment of patients. Results? The score of health empowerment of elderly fragility fracture patients was (89.00±14.31) and responsibility belief dimension was with the highest score (3.74±0.88). Patients' health empowerment had a negative correlation with the frailty (r=-0.576, P＜0.01) and had a positive correlation with the self-efficacy (r=0.496, P＜ 0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the main influencing factors of health empowerment of patients included ages, education levels, medical payment methods, frailty and self-efficacy (P＜0.05). Conclusions? Nurses should pay attention to patients' health empowerment ability and provide the individualized nursing to strengthen the health empowerment ability of elderly fragility fracture patients.
