Abstract

This retrospective descriptive research aims to study the factors predicting movement recovery in the
older patients after hip fracture surgery. Purposive sampling was used to select the medical records of 92 elderly
patients who underwent hip orthopedic surgery in Singburi Hospital. The research instruments consisted of 1) a
case record form, 2) a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), and 3) a postoperative movement recovery form. The
general data of the samples were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation statistics
while factors predicting movement recovery in the older patients after hip fracture surgery were analyzed using
multinomial logistic regression.
The results showed that the older patients with blood loss less than 200 ml had increased 50.12 times
of chance of recovery in movement (OR = 50.12, 95% CI 2.62, 959.73) compared to the older patients with blood
loss greater than 200 ml. The older patients with the surgery time less than 60 minutes had increased 20.70 times
of chance of recovery in movement (OR = 20.70, 95% CI 2.06, 208.90) compared to the older patients with the
surgery time greater than 90 minutes, and 3) the older patients with the pain level score of 6-6.5 had 7.47 times
of chance of recovery in movement (OR = 7.47, 95% CI 1.09, 51.37) compared to the older patients with pain
level score of 7-7.5. Therefore, nurses and multidisciplinary teams should prepare the older patients before surgery
and manage pain appropriately in order to support post-hip surgery to have better mobility recovery to reduce
complications and allow the patient to restore the body to be close to normal.
