ABSTRACT

Objective:

To explore the effect of continuous nursing on quality of life in patients after total knee replacement.

Methods:

100 patients with knee replacement were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group, with 50 cases in each group. The control group received routine nursing care, while the experi-mental group received continuous nursing care on the basis of routine nursing care. Patients' quality of life ( QOL) was measured after operation, three months after operation and six months after operation.

Results:

A total of 96 patients participated in the study throughout the process. The QOL score of the 48 patients in the experimental group was (463. 75 ± 10. 62) points after operation, (521. 24 ± 9. 98) points three months after operation, and (530. 98 ± 12. 82) points six months after operation. The QOL score of the 48 patients in the control group was (464. 28 ± 11. 91) points after operation, (495. 01 ± 11. 22) points three months after operation, and (499. 66 ± 10. 91) points six months after operation. There was no significant difference between the two groups in QOL after operation (P>0. 05). At three months and six months after operation, the QOL of the experimental group was sig-nificantly higher than that of the control group ( P<0 . 05 ) .

Conclusion:

Continuous nursing after total knee re-placement can improve the quality of life of patients.
