The effect of early exercise intervention on deep venous thrombosis after joint replacement / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of early exercise intervention on deep venous thrombosis (DVT) after joint replacement.Methods 100 patients with joint replacement were divided into observation group including 50 cases and control group including 50 cases by random number table method.Early exercise intervention was used in observation group and usual nursing was used in control group.The hemodynamic index (femoral vein blood flow peak velocity and average velocity) and DVT incidence were compared between the two groups.Results After the intervention for 3 days,the femoral vein blood flow peak velocity and average velocity of observation group respectively were (43.5±4.1) cm/s and (27.3±3.2) cm/s,those of control group respectively were(36.6±3.7) cm/s and (20.2±2.8) cm/s.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t=2.987,2.895,P ＜ 0.05).After the intervention for 7 days,the femoral vein blood flow peak velocity and average velocity of observation group respectively were (56.1±4.7) cm/s and (32.1±3.9) cm/s,those of control group respectively were (41.3±3.9) cm/s and (22.4±4.3) cm/s.The femoral vein blood flow peak velocity and average velocity of observation group significantly higher than control group(t=3.675,2.929,P ＜ 0.05).The DVT incidence of control group and observation group respectively were 40.0％(20/50) and 14.0％(7/50),showed significant differences between the two groups(x2=8.574,P=0.003).Conclusions Using the early exercise intervention on patients with joint replacement can effectively improve the lower limb venous blood flow velocity and prevent DVT.
