Cette étude a été identifiée comme étant potentiellement à fort impact.
L'indicateur High Impact de l'ENP, basé sur l'IA, estime l'influence qu'un article est susceptible d'avoir en intégrant des signaux provenant à la fois de la revue dans laquelle il est publié et du contenu scientifique de l'article lui-même.
Développé à l'aide d'un traitement du langage naturel de pointe, le modèle High Impact de l'ENP prédit avec plus de précision les futures citations d'une étude que le seul facteur d'impact de la revue.
Cela permet d'identifier plus tôt les recherches cliniquement significatives et aide les lecteurs à se concentrer sur les articles les plus susceptibles d'influencer les pratiques futures.

Mohammad A. Auais (International Centre for Health Innovation, Western University) discusses the effect of extended exercise rehabilitation after hip fracture.
This meta-analysis included 13 randomized controlled trails (1107 fractures) that assessed the effects of an extended exercise rehabilitation program on the physical functioning of patients with hip fractures. The results of the meta-analysis and systematic review indicate that an extended exercise rehabilitation program improves knee extension strength, balance, physical performance based tests, the Timed "Up and Go" test, and fast gait speed when compared with a standard rehabilitation program for patients with hip fractures.

L'indice de fragilité est un outil qui aide à l'interprétation des résultats significatifs, en fournissant une mesure de la force d'un résultat. L'indice de fragilité représente le nombre d'événements consécutifs qui doivent être ajoutés à un résultat dichotomique pour que le résultat ne soit plus significatif. Un petit nombre représente un résultat plus faible et un grand nombre un résultat plus fort.
Pourquoi cette étude était-elle nécessaire maintenant ?
Hip fractures are the most serious form of osteoporotic fracture. When these fractures are sustained, the goals of treatment include returning patients to a pre-event functional level and preventing recurrent fractures. Unfortunately, only 50% of survivors regain their former levels of mobility. Interest in the effects of an extended rehabilitation period has increased due to the fact that functional status of patients seem to decline after rehabilitation services are stopped. However, the long-term effects of this program are unclear, as findings have been conflicting. This study aimed to determine whether an extended exercise rehabilitation program offered improvement over the regular rehabilitation program with regard to the physical functioning of patients who have undergone surgical repair of a hip fracture.
Quelle était la principale question de recherche ?
Does an extended rehabilitation program improve the physical function of patients who have undergone surgical repair of a hip fracture when compared to usual care?
- Extended rehabilitation programs significantly improved knee muscle strength on the affected (ES=0.47, 95% CI=0.27 to 0.66, p<0.001) and nonaffected side (ES=0.45, 95% CI=0.16 to 0.74, p=0.002), balance (ES=0.32, 95% CI=0.15 to 0.49, p<0.001), physical performance-based tests (ES=0.53, 95% CI=0.27 to 0.78, p<0.001), timed "Up and Go" test (ES=0.83, 95% CI=0.28 to 1.4, p=0.003), and fast gait speed (ES=0.42, 95% CI=0.11 to 0.73, p=0.008) when compared to standard rehabilitation programs.
- Results from the 6 Minute Walk Test (ES=0.22, 95% CI=0.12 to 0.57, p=0.21), normal gait speed (ES=0.16, 95% CI=0.17 to 0.48, p=0.35), activities of daily living (ES=0.14, 95% CI=0.07 to 0.35, p=0.2), instrumental activities of daily living (ES=0.2, 95% CI=0.07 to 0.48, p=0.14), and the physical function subscale of the 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (ES=0.2, 95% CI=0.03 to 0.44, p=0.09) were not significantly different between the patients that completed extended rehabilitation programs and the patients that completed standard rehabilitation programs.
De quoi dois-je me souvenir en priorité ?
The data suggests that extended rehabilitation programs result in significantly greater improvement than standard rehabilitation programs with respect to knee muscle strength on the affected and nonaffected side, balance, physical performance-based tests, timed "Up and Go" test, and fast gait speed among patients who required surgical intervention for a fracture of the hip.
Comment cela affectera-t-il les soins prodigués à mes patients ?
Extended rehabilitation programs may improve physical functioning of the hip when compared to standard rehabilitation programs for hip fractures. However, in order to reach a definite conclusion regarding extended rehabilitation programs, randomized controlled trials with larger sample sizes are required, as well as cost analyses.
