Filter by:This study will be conducted as intervention research to determine the effect of mobilization training to be provided to the patient undergoing hip arthroplasty on postoperative kinesiophobia and fear of falling. The project will be carried out with 50 voluntary patients (25 intervention, 25 control) aged over 65 who came to Hospital for hip arthroplasty after femur fracture, can communicate, have no advanced sensory loss related to vision and hearing, do not have a psychiatric history, and will undergo hip arthroplasty surgery for the first time. Data will be collected using a "Sociodemographic Characteristics Questionnaire", the "Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia", and "the Fall Activity Scale". Appropriate statistical methods will be used in the analysis of the data. Patients in the control group will be given routine care during the study. Patients in the experimental group will receive technology-assisted mobilization training in addition to routine care. Before mobilization, a training video loaded into a tablet will be given to patients. Written permission will be taken from the ethics committee and the institution for the implementation of the research and written consent will be obtained from the patients.
The overall purpose for conducting this research is to improve the safety and efficacy of care for perioperative patients who have developmental delays and behavioral challenges. The specific objectives for this study are to describe distress behaviors and interventions used in the ACT population. The investigators will also determine the relationship between a predictive measure of distress (the Psychosocial Risk Assessment in Pediatrics score) with the actual distress behaviors exhibited by patients in the perioperative area. This study will provide knowledge that is necessary in order to develop best practices and to guide future research for this patient population. Further understanding the techniques used to improve care in the perioperative setting may also provide useful information to consider in other healthcare settings where this patient population has difficulty with coping and cooperating (ex. vaccinations, placing IVs, dental work, etc.).
