Effectiveness of multicomponent home-based rehabilitation in older patients after hip fracture surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis

초록

Background Hip fracture is a major burden on health care systems worldwide and requires hospitalisation for a long period. Objective The aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of multicomponent home-based rehabilitation compared with different control interventions (in-hospital rehabilitation, active control or usual care) in older patients after hip fracture surgery. Design Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled studies. Data sources We searched three electronic databases, including Ovid-MEDLINE, Ovid-Embase, CINAHL and the Cochrane Library for relevant articles up to March 2020. Review methods Two investigators independently extracted data and assessed study quality using the risk of bias. Data were analysed using Review Manager 5.3. The current review employs the PRISMA procedure. Results Out of 2996 studies, 22 articles were relevant for this review and meta-analysis. Among them, five compared the multicomponent home-based rehabilitation with in-hospital rehabilitation, one compared it with active control, six with usual care and ten compared the home exercise only with usual care. There was no significant difference in activities of daily living (ADL) between multicomponent home-based rehabilitation and in-hospital rehabilitation, while multicomponent home-based rehabilitation significantly increased in ADL when compared to usual care. Home exercises also had significant effects on ADL, quality of life(QoL), balance, gait and muscle strength of the knee extensor compared with usual care (p < .05). Conclusions Multicomponent home-based rehabilitation is comparable to in-hospital rehabilitation regarding improvements in muscle strength, gait speed, balance, ADL and QoL. Relevant to clinical practice Multicomponent home-based rehabilitation is comparable to in-hospital rehabilitation regarding improvements in muscle strength, gait speed, balance, ADL and QoL. Also, high adherence to home exercise may be associated with better clinical outcomes. Therefore, more compliance-oriented multicomponent home-based rehabilitation programmes for older patients after hip fracture must be developed by health care professionals, including physical therapist, to ensure optimum home-based rehabilitation.
