Clinical application of the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery in perioperative nursing of patients with total hip replacement / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in the perioperative nursing of patients with total hip replacement.Methods:A total of 93 patients with hip osteoarthritis admitted from June 2017 to June 2018 were divided into routine nursing group and ERAS nursing group according to the random number table method. Patients in both groups were treated with unilateral total hip arthroplasty. Routine nursing group was treated with routine perioperative nursing, and ERAS nursing group was treated with ERAS concept. The ERAS nursing team was established, including a head nurse and an orthopedic physician, in addition to the regular nursing staff. The treatment, perioperative pain and nursing satisfaction of the two groups were compared.Results:The first time of getting out of bed activity [(1.95 ± 0.45) days vs. (5.52 ± 2.52) days], the first time of defecation after operation [(1.34 ± 0.56) days vs. (2.15 ± 0.84) days], the time of hospitalization [(5.73 ± 1.65) days vs. (10.04 ± 2.14) days] in ERAS nursing group were shorter than those in routine nursing group, and the cost of hospitalization [(49 450.50 ± 880.52) yuan vs. (53 053.50 ± 780.50) yuan] was lower than that in routine nursing group, the differences were statistically significant ( t=6.639-31.622, P < 0.05). The NRS scores of 24 hours [(3.35 ± 0.85) vs. (4.32 ± 1.05)], 48 hours [(2.65 ± 0.52) vs. (3.48 ± 0.54)] after operation and discharge [(1.74 ± 0.65) vs. (2.36 ± 0.53)] in the ERAS nursing group were lower than those of the routine nursing group, the differences were statistically significant ( t=4.526, 4.856 and 4.456, P < 0.05). The nursing satisfaction rate of ERAS nursing group (95.7%, 45/47) was higher than that of routine nursing group (76.60%, 36/47), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The idea of ERAS has a good clinical effect in perioperative nursing of patients with total hip replacement.
