Patients' learning needs after hip arthroplasty

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to describe patients' learning needs after hip arthroplasty and compare them prior to and 2 weeks after hospital discharge. Data were collected in two phases from 22 surgical wards in 17 hospitals in Finland using a Canadian Patient Learning Needs Scale (Galloway et al., 1996). The first questionnaire (n=212, 81%) was completed before hospital discharge and the second (n=144, 55%) was completed at home after hospital discharge. Results indicated that patients' learning needs dimin… Show more

“…While Orgun et al found a point average of 201.73±25.16, Özge et al reported a point average of 196.99±36.14 in studies carried out in surgical clinics in our country (2425). Consistent with previous reports, in our study, the subjects about which the patients most wanted information were the subdimensions of treatment and complications, life activities, and medications [24,25].…”

“…In some studies however, the number of perceived information needs differed by gender. Women had stronger information needs before discharge, but there were no differences between women's and men's information needs after discharge (Johansson, Hupli and Salanterä 2002;Uzun, Ucuzal and İnan 2011). In other studies, men reported a higher number of perceived information needs than women (Fredericks, Guruge, Sidani, and Wan 2009).…”

“…The higher the person's level of education, the more likely they will be to engage in a higher order of thinking to influence perception and interpretation of information. Whilst the literature offers very little discussion about employment status and learning needs, Johansson, Hupli and Salanterä (2002) discovered that after discharge, retired hip replacement patients had stronger information needs than those still working. Similar results were obtained in this study.…”

“…The authors agree that the discharge should be planned by the multiprofessional team in charge of care, and its implementation should start right after the therapeutics establishment (4)(5) . Studies (6)(7)(8)(9) show that the information provision is the basic DP intervention, and the patients and their caregivers are able to identify their needs of information, which depend on the health status and types of required care for discharge. Nevertheless, the way the information is provided and the resources used may help apprehend its contents and favor process satisfaction.…”
