Problems Experienced by Patients in the Clinic and at Home after Orthopedic Surgery and Their Level of Care Dependency

Öz

Background: The care needs of patients who underwent orthopedic surgery are not limited to the hospital but continue at home after discharge. Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine the problems and care dependency levels of patients who has orthopedic surgery in the clinic after the surgery and at home in the first month of discharge. Methods: Between March 1, 2021 and April 18, 2022, 113 patients (aged 18 and over), who were hospitalized in the orthopedics and traumatology clinic of public hospital due to orthopedic surgery, were included in study. Data were collected using the “Patient Information Form (Part I), Follow-up Form (Part II),” and “Care Dependency Scale.” Data were evaluated using mean, standard deviation, median, minimum-maximum, number and percentage, McNemar, McNemarBrowker, eta squared (η2), Cohen’s d, Kruskal Wallis-H test, Dunn’s test for multiple comparisons and Linear regression analysis. Results: It has determined that patients who had orthopedic surgery mostly had difficulties in fulfill their self care needs and physical mobility limitations. With the relief of patients’ pain and anxiety, an increase in their belief in recovery and a decrease in their dependency levels were observed. In the linear regression model, only 17% of the changes in care dependency could be explained by independent variables, but the independent variables were not statistically significant. Conclusion: Orthopedic patients experience high levels of mobility limitation and care dependency. There was a decrease in care dependency in the first month after discharge compared to the third day in the clinic.
