Core Tip

Core Tip: Traumatic fractures cause different degrees of physical damage to patients. The injured limbs may present with pain, swelling, and ecchymosis. Visceral damage, shock, or even fatality may ensue in severe circumstances, imposing substantial distress and setbacks on patients’ physiological and psychological adaptability. This study included 188 patients with traumatic fractures. The influencing factors of psychological resilience in such patients were confirmed to involve sex, age, trauma severity, personality, and sleep quality. Among female patients, those aged < 40 years, individuals with a higher degree of trauma severity, introverted patients, and those with suboptimal sleep quality, enhanced care, and psychological intervention should be strengthened to improve their psychological resilience as much as possible. This, in turn, exerts a favorable effect on the patient’s posttraumatic growth status. Our study provides effective guidance for the rehabilitation of patients with traumatic fractures.
