Popis: | Background Hip fractures are an increasing phenomenon in the older population. Receiving post-operative rehabilitation is associated with better outcomes and a higher likelihood of returning to preexisting level of functioning. Best rehabilitation practices for people with dementia have not been established. Methods All patients >/= 60 years old with a hip fracture admitted under the orthopaedic team between March 2016-February 2018 were reviewed. Those with a diagnosis of dementia were extracted from the database. Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), Zuckermann Functional Recovery Score (FRS) and New Mobility Score (NMS) were documented at baseline and at one year. Outcomes assessed included 1 year mortality, decline FRS/NMS, change in CFS and nursing home (NH) admission rates. Results 465 patients’ hip fractures were recorded: 175 patients had dementia. 67 patients were dead at 1-year post fracture (38.285% mortality rate). Of the 108 patients with dementia who were living at 1-year; 30.5% (n=33) received offsite rehab. 58.4% (n=63) received routine in-patient rehab. 12 lost to follow-up. Of the 33 patients that received off-site rehab the mean FRS at baseline was 66 and decreased to 45.56 at 1 year (30.9% reduction). The mean CFS at baseline was 5.1, increasing to 6 at 1-year (17% increase). Mean NMS was 5.7 decreasing to 3.7 at 1-year. In those patients with dementia that did not receive off site rehab (n=63); baseline mean FRS was 38 reducing to 30 at 1 year (26.6 % reduction). Mean CFS was 6.25- increasing to 6.47 at 1 year. 41% of patients admitted from home who did not receive off-site rehab were discharged to NH. Of the group discharged to off-site rehab: at 1 year 33% were in a NH and 72% remained at home. Conclusion Both groups demonstrated decline in function. Those that received off-site rehab had higher premorbid functioning/mobility and reduced frailty. There was a reduced NH admission rate at 1-year in the group that received off-site rehab. |
