摘要
目的调查和分析老年髋部骨折术后患者居家环境改进需求情况。方法以方便抽样的方法随访广州市82例老年髋部骨折术后出院患者家居情况。结果82例老人中70例有跌倒史,其中室内跌倒45例,占64.3%,室外跌倒25例,占35.7%,老年人对居家环境改进需求仅为16.8%。结论术后老人在家庭康复过程中存在着再次跌倒的危险因素,而老人和家庭成员对家庭环境改造意义缺乏认识和重视。加强老年人居室安全重要性的宣传和教育,改善居家环境是减少跌倒的重要措施。
Objective To evaluate postoperative home environment safety needs of old patients with hip fracture in Guangzhou. Method Eighty-two elder patients with hip fracture who underwent operation were randomly sampled and interviewed. Results Of the surveyed 82 elders, 70 cases had fallen history. Of the 70 cases, 45 （ 64. 3% ） fell at home and 25 （35.7%） outside home. However, only 16. 8% subjects expressed their needs for an improved home safety environment. Conclusions Risk factors for falls of the elder patients still exist after operation. Both the patients and their family members ignored these risk factors. Education is urgently needed for these patients and an improved home environment is critical for the decrease of their falls.
