Abstract

Introduction: To evaluate the effects of physical therapy and rehabilitation on life satisfaction and quality of life in patients older than 60 years with osteoarthritis. Materials and Methods: Forty hospitalized patients older than 60 years with osteoarthritis were included in the study. Life Satisfaction Index (LSI) and Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) were scored on the first and last days of treatment. Pain evaluation, global assessment of patients and physicians were calculated with 10 centimeter Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).Results: Twenty patients (50%) with vertebral osteoarthrosis and 20 patients (50%) with knee osteoarthrosis were underwent physical therapy and rehabilitation. There were statistically significant decreases in VAS (p=0.000), patients' (p=0.033), doctors' global assessment (p=0.000) after the treatment. Furthermore statistically significant increase in life satisfaction index scores (p=0.027) and statistically significant decrease in NHP total score (p=0.001) were determined.Conclusion: We determined prominent improvement in generic quality of life scales (NHP, LSI) and global assessments in hospitalized patients older than 60 years with osteoarthritis.

Özet

Giriş: Yatarak fizik tedavi ve rehabilitasyon uygulanan, 60 yaş üstü osteoartroz hastalarında tedavinin yaşam kalitesine ve yaşam doyumuna etkisini saptamaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Kliniğimizde yatarak fizik tedavi ve rehabilitasyon uygulanan 60 yaş üstü 40 hasta çalışmaya alındı. Hastalara tedavilerine başlamadan önce ve tedavi bitiminde, Yaşam Doyum Ölçeği (LSI), Nottingham Sağlık Profili (NHP) ölçekleri uygulandı. Hastaların ağrı düzeyleri, kendilerinin ve doktorun değerlendirdiği genel durumları 10 cm'lik Vizüel Analog Skala (VAS) ile belirlendi.Bulgular: Hastaların 20'si (%50) vertebral spondiloz, 20'si (%50) gonartroz nedeni ile tedavi almıştı. Hastaneye yatış ve çıkış değerlerinden VAS-ağrı da (p=0.000), VAS-hastanın kendini genel değerlendiriminde (p=0.033), VAS-doktorun hastayı genel değerlendiriminde (p=0.000) istatistiksel anlamlı azalma tespit edildi. Ayrıca yaşam doyum ölçeğinde (p=0.027) istatistiksel anlamlı artış, NHP total skorda (p=0.001) istatistiksel anlamlı azalma mevcuttu.Sonuç: Altmış yaş üstü yatarak fizik tedavi ve rehabilitasyon uygulanan hastalarda jenerik yaşam kalitesi ölçekleri (VAS, NHP) ve yaşam doyum ölçeğinde belirgin düzelme saptanmıştır.
