Abstract

Objective: To investigate the positive effect of mindfulness training and exercise therapy on functional recovery and quality of life in elderly patients with fractures of the lower back. Methods: Collection of medical records of patients with lumbar vertebral fractures in Suzhou Municipal Hospital (North District), 60 patients underwent percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP/PKP), they were divided into control and experimental groups according to a random number table, 30 people per group; In addition to traditional care method, Also intervened with behavioural awareness training and exercise therapy, By comparing the Oswestry dysfunction index score (ODI), visual simulation score (VAS), ability of daily living score (ADL), quality of life score (SF-36), To evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention. Results: Before the intervention, the ODI, VAS, ADL, and SF-36 scores were basically the same, with no significant difference (P>0.05). After treatment, the ODI and VAS scores of the experimental group and the control group were significantly lower, and the experimental group was significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05); the ADL scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05); their SF-36 quality of life scores in all dimensions were significantly higher (P<0.05). Conclusion: Through the rehabilitation treatment method combining mindfulness behavior training and exercise intervention, it can effectively promote the functional recovery of osteoporotic lumbar fractures in the elderly, thus reducing their pain and improving their quality of life.
