髋关节保护装置已被证明可以有效地降低住在养老院的老年人髋部骨折的发生率(Parker et al, 2004)。然而,在遵从性方面存在问题。本文报告了来自23个护理之家的138名工作人员关于使用髋关节护具的经验和看法的调查结果。这项调查还辅以涉及工作人员的定性案例研究,这些研究将与佩戴臀部护具的依从性联系起来,包括舒适度、住院医生的可接受性和外表。在使用髋关节保护器的实际困难很少被确定。工作人员和住院医生对使用髋关节保护装置的看法和经验各不相同,可能会影响依从性。
Hip protectors have been shown to be effective in reducing the incidence of hip fracture among older people living in care homes (Parker et al, 2004). However, there are problems with compliance. This article reports findings from a survey of 138 staff from 23 care homes about experiences and perceptions of using hip protectors. The survey was complemented by qualitative case studies involving staff, to be linked to compliance with wearing hip protectors including comfort, acceptability to the resident and appearance. Few practical difficulties in using hip protectors were identified. Staff and residents' perceptions and experiences of using hip protectors vary and are likely to influence compliance.
