Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of evidence-based precision nursing in patients with sarcopenia undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) .Methods:By convenience sampling, totally 41 TKA patients with sarcopenia treated in the Department of Orthopedics at The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from August 2021 to February 2022 were selected as the control group, and 41 TKA patients with sarcopenia treated from March 2022 to March 2023 as the observation group. Patients in the control group received conventional nursing care, while patients in the observation group received an evidence-based precision nursing plan. The differences in muscle mass, grip strength, physical activity ability, knee joint function, and quality of life between the two groups before and after the intervention were compared.Results:After the intervention, the total muscle mass, affected limb skeletal muscle mass, limb skeletal muscle mass, limb skeletal muscle mass index, and grip strength in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P< 0.05). The scores on the Short Physical Performance Battery, Lysholm Score, and Sarcopenia Quality of Life Scale in the observation group were also significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Evidence-based precision nursing can improve postoperative muscle mass and strength, enhance physical activity ability and joint function, and improve the quality of life in TKA patients with sarcopenia.
