Abstract

Hip fractures, one of the main reasons for disability, are frequently seen in older population. Several diseases including osteoporosis, neuromotor dysfunctions such as a stroke or Parkinson's disease, cognitive and balance disorders put the elderly to a higher risk for hip fracture compared to the younger population. In this group of patients, surgery is best treatment modality in order to obtain a satisfactory functional status. However, in these patients, age and coexisting medical illness may cause an increase in complications resulting in higher mortality after the surgical interventions. Moreover, the quality of life may be adversely affected in survivors after the surgery. In this manuscript, the rehabilitation of the elderly patients suffering from hip fracture and the potential problems during the rehabilitation program has been reviewed besides the preventive care methods.

Özet

Kalça kırıkları disabilitenin önemli bir nedeni olarak yaşlı populasyonda sık görülen bir sorundur. Osteoporoz, Parkinson hastalığı ya da inme gibi nöromotor disfonksiyona neden olan hastalıklar, kognitif bozukluklar ve denge bozuklukları nedeniyle yaşlılar kalça kırıkları açısından genç populasyona göre daha yüksek risk altındadırlar. Bu hastalarda kırık öncesi fonksiyonel düzeye dönüş en iyi şekilde cerrahi tedavi ile mümkün olmaktadır. Ancak ileri yaş ve eşlik eden hastalıklar nedeniyle cerrahi sonrası komplikasyonlar daha fazla görülmekte ve buna bağlı olarak da mortalite hızı artmaktadır. Hayatta kalanlarda ise yaşam kalitesi belirgin şekilde olumsuz yönde etkilenebilmektedir. Bu yazıda amacımız yaşlı hastaların kalça kırıklarından korunması için alınması gereken önlemlerin yanı sıra, kalça kırıklı yaşlı bireylerin rehabilitasyonu ve rehabilitasyon aşamalarında karşılaşılabilecekleri sorunları gözden geçirmektir.
