Some factors related to the outcomes post care for patients with knee osteoarthritis at 108 Military Central Hospital
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: Investigate some factors related to the outcomes after caring for patients with primary knee osteoarthritis at the 108 Military Central Hospital.
Subject and methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted with 245 patients with knee osteoarthritis receiving treatment at the Rheumatology Department - 108 Military Central Hospital from October 2022 to December 2023.
Result: The average age of 245 patients was 62.3 ± 13.0 years. Post-care outcomes classification: Achieve was 80.9%, not achieve was 19.1%. Men are more likely than women to achieve post-care outcomes (OR 95% CI = 2.6; p = 0.012). The accomplishment rate was greater for patients with a disease duration of less than five years than for those with a period of more than 5 years (OR = 1.8; p = 0.037). Patients without comorbidities of gout and lumbar spine degeneration had a higher achievement rate compared to those with these conditions, respectively (OR = 3.4; p = 0.000); (OR = 2.1; p = 0.001). Patients receiving care had better knee flexion and extension range compared to those not receiving care (OR = 9.7; p = 0.000); (OR = 3.8; p = 0.005). Satisfied patients received higher quality care compared to those who were not satisfied (OR = 4.5; p = 0.000).
Conclusion: Through research, it was found that there is a correlation between care outcomes and: gender, duration of illness, comorbidities such as gout and lumbar spine degeneration, range of motion in knee flexion and extension, and patient satisfaction levels. Thus, it can be seen that the monitoring, care, and evaluation work of nurses for patients with knee osteoarthritis constitutes a significant part of the overall treatment outcome, bringing satisfaction to patients, minimizing complications, and improving the quality of life.
