Identifying kinesiophobia subtypes and their determinants in patients with hip fractures: a latent profile analysis

This study identified three kinesiophobia subtypes among patients with hip fractures, supporting the relevance of the fear-avoidance model in trauma rehabilitation and providing a basis for tailored intervention strategies (e.g., multimodal therapies for the subtype of significant avoidance kinesiophobia) to optimize rehabilitation outcomes. Future research should investigate the longitudinal trajectory of these subtypes, evaluate the sustained effects of targeted interventions, and examine the generalizability of the model to guide precision rehabilitation care.
