Résumé

Locomotive syndrome (LS) is a high risk condition that requires nursing care. It is important to investigate the prevalence of and factors related to LS to maintain a healthy life expectancy for patients; however, only a few reports have focused on the relationship between LS and total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of LS and to identify factors associated with LS in patients more than 10 years after THA. This is a cross-sectional cohort study. Patients were assessed via a mail survey that included items regarding demographic data, cardiometabolic and motor disorders, the incidence of falls, physical activity level, and the 25-question Geriatric Locomotive Function Scale (GLFS-25) questionnaire. LS was defined as having a score ≥16 on the GLFS-25, and the respondents were categorized into two groups: an LS group and a non-LS group. The prevalence of LS was calculated in each gender and age group. Differences in variables between the groups were determined using the unpaired t-test and chi-squared test. A total of 593 patients were included in the study (mean age, 70.4 years; 525/593 females). According to the GLFS-25, 164 patients (27.7%; 21.1% men and 28.8% women) were classified as having LS, which increased with age. In addition, compared with the non-LS group, the LS group had a significantly higher prevalence of motor diseases, cardiometabolic diseases, and falls and significantly lower levels of activity. These findings suggest that the prevalence of LS in patients more than 10 years after THA is 27.7%. The result suggest that the prevalence of LS in patients more than 10 years after THA is similar to the prevalence of LS in the general elderly population. Furthermore, LS is related to not only motor diseases but also cardiometabolic diseases.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Locomotive syndrome (LS) is a high risk condition that requires nursing care. It is important to investigate the prevalence of and factors related to LS to maintain a healthy life expectancy for patients; however, only a few reports have focused on the relationship between LS and total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of LS and to identify factors associated with LS in patients more than 10 years after THA.
METHODS METHODS
This is a cross-sectional cohort study. Patients were assessed via a mail survey that included items regarding demographic data, cardiometabolic and motor disorders, the incidence of falls, physical activity level, and the 25-question Geriatric Locomotive Function Scale (GLFS-25) questionnaire. LS was defined as having a score ≥16 on the GLFS-25, and the respondents were categorized into two groups: an LS group and a non-LS group. The prevalence of LS was calculated in each gender and age group. Differences in variables between the groups were determined using the unpaired t-test and chi-squared test.
RESULTS RESULTS
A total of 593 patients were included in the study (mean age, 70.4 years; 525/593 females). According to the GLFS-25, 164 patients (27.7%; 21.1% men and 28.8% women) were classified as having LS, which increased with age. In addition, compared with the non-LS group, the LS group had a significantly higher prevalence of motor diseases, cardiometabolic diseases, and falls and significantly lower levels of activity.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
These findings suggest that the prevalence of LS in patients more than 10 years after THA is 27.7%. The result suggest that the prevalence of LS in patients more than 10 years after THA is similar to the prevalence of LS in the general elderly population. Furthermore, LS is related to not only motor diseases but also cardiometabolic diseases.
