REHABILITATION NEEDS IN A COMMUNITY HOSPITAL
Yusuke Mon (Ayabe Kyoritsu Hospital, Ayabe, Japan)
Purpose: To investigate the requirements and effectiveness of rehabilitation procedures in medical and surgical wards in a community hospital located in a city where one-fourth of the population is over sixty-five.
Method: Six hundred patients, discharged during a period of seven months, were examined as to rehabilitation needs and effects.
Results: Therapeutic exercises were prescribed for seventy-nine patients (13.2%). Of these, thirty-three (Group A) had been hospitalized because of paralytic diseases, such as musculoskeletal disease and stroke; forty-six (Group B) had been hospitalized due to medical and surgical diseases, which in themselves do not cause motor disturbances, but because these patients had developed disuse syndrome before or during hospitalization, therapeutic exercises were prescribed. The mean age of Group B was higher than that of Group A (83±6 vs. 74±14) ; and before hospitalization, the ADL level of Group B was, as expected, much lower than that of Group A. However, when ADL levels for both groups at discharge were compared, it was discovered that individual ADLs for Group B had more often been restored to their original, pre-hospitalization level.
Conclusion: In a community hospital which treats so many aged people, greater emphasis must be placed on rehabilitation for patients afflicted with medical and surgical diseases which do not cause motor disturbances.
