Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effect of home visit on joint function and complications of patients undergoing hip replacement.
Methods:Ninety cases of patients with artificial hip replacement who were admitted to our hospital from January to December 2017 were randomly divided into two groups by random Number Table Method.45 patients in the control group were given routine nursing after discharge, and 45 patients in the observation group were treated with home visit nursing. The hip function and living ability of the two groups were evaluated 8, 12, 16 weeks after discharge,and the complication rate was compared.
Results:The self-care ability scores of the observation group at 8, 12 and 16 weeks after discharge were 102.23±11.20, 108.36±10.41, 116.25±10.36 higher than those of the control group at 97.86±10.35), 100.21±14.26, 104.23±15.6, with significant differences (t=1.922, 3.097, 4.294, P < 0.05 or 0.01). The Harris scores of the observation group at 8, 12 and 16 weeks after discharge were 82.31±11.27, 87.38±10.05, 95.10±11.23 higher than those of the control group at 78.02±10.23, 83.41±11.74, 89.43±11.62, with significant differences (t=1.891, 1.723, 2.343, P < 0.05). The incidence of complications in the observation group at 16 weeks after discharge was 0 lower than 13.33% (6/45) in the control group (χ2=6.429, P=0.011).
Conclusions:Home visit intervention can improve the self-nursing ability of the patients after hip joint operation, promote the recovery of hip function and life ability, and reduce the complications.
