How to cite this article:Rocha SA, Avila MAG, Bocchi SCM. The influence of informal caregivers on the rehabilitation of the elderly in the postoperative period of proximal femoral fracture. Rev Gaúcha Enferm. 2016 mar;37 (1) Results: There was a predominance of studies by Chinese authors and nurses. The analysis of the studies evidenced that falls followed by fractures lead to dependence of older adults and, consequently, an overload to caregivers. Moreover, older adults and caregivers showed a need for support in the rehabilitation process. Conclusions:Informal caregivers still need to be included in care planning and to be qualified for such care by health professionals, since they positively influence functional independence in the postoperative period. Resultados: Predominaram estudos com autoria de chineses e enfermeiros. A análise dos estudos evidenciou que as quedas seguidas por fraturas promovem a dependência de idosos e, consequentemente, a sobrecarga aos cuidadores, demonstrando o binômio idoso dependente-cuidador necessitar de apoio no processo de reabilitação. Keywords Conclusões:Os cuidadores informais ainda precisam ser inseridos no planejamento e capacitados para o cuidado pelos profissionais da saúde, uma vez que influenciam positivamente a independência funcional no pós-operatório.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Verificar la influencia del cuidador informal en la independencia funcional de ancianos en postoperatorio de fractura proximal de fémur por caídas.Método: Revisión integradora, cuyo análisis se reunieron 23 artículos, entre 2002 y 2012, en las bases de datos Literatura Latinoamericana y del Caribe en Ciencias de la Salud, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, US National Library of Medicine e Scopus.Resultados: Predominaron estudios con autores chinos y enfermeros. El análisis de los estudios evidenció que las caídas que producen fracturas promueven la dependencia de ancianos y, consecuentemente, sobrecarga en los cuidadores, demostrando la dupla anciano dependiente-cuidador necesidad de apoyo en el proceso de rehabilitación. Conclusiones:Los cuidadores informales necesitan inserción en la planificación, además de capacitación para cuidados por parte de profesionales de salud, toda vez que influyen positivamente en la independencia funcional durante el postoperatorio.Palabras clave: Anciano.

Aim To describe and interpret how older adults who have returned home to recover from a hip fracture cope with life in a health promoting perspective. Design Data were collected through the search in seven electronic databases during 2014. Inclusion criteria were peer reviewed, empirical studies. The keywords were hip fracture, coping, empowerment, self‐efficacy, elderly, frail elderly, oldest old. Seventeen papers published 1991–2014 were eligible for inclusion. Analysis of the qualitative and quantitative papers was conducted separately guided by the key words coping, empowerment and self‐efficacy. Due to diversity of studies, a meta‐analysis was not performed. The findings were reported in a narrative synthesis. Results Recovery is an individual process of regaining health. It is important to include the person's resources and own goals in life. Physical training must be combined with psychosocial interventions to promote personal engagement and health.
We have highlighted how these strategies are implemented in qualitative research on osteoporosis and fractures and are anchored to specific methodological practices. We focus on studies that explore patient psychosocial experiences of diagnosis and treatment, cultural boundaries, and interprofessional communication. After reviewing the research, we believe that action research, that is not frequently used, could also effectively be used by many professions to improve programs and policies affecting those dealing with osteoporosis issues.
