Abstract
Objective
The aim of the study was to explore the application and the effect of the triple prerehabilitation nursing model in the perioperative period of knee arthroplasty in diabetic patients.
Methods
The prospectively included 60 patients with diabetes who underwent total knee replacement were admitted from August 2021 to April 2022 and were divided into 2 groups according to the (1 : 1) ratio. The control group was mainly given routine nursing care. On the basis of the control group, the observation group received triple prerehabilitation nursing. The postoperative knee flexion, hospital for the special surgery knee score (HSS), the daily living ability (Barthel) score, the modified fall efficacy scale (MFES) score, the recovery of the lower-limb muscle strength, and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.
Results
The knee flexion degree and lower-limb muscle recovery of the observation group were better than those of the control group at 3 d, 7 d, and 14 d after operation (P < 0.05). The HSS score, Barthel score, and MFES score of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative complications between the two groups (P > 0.05).
Conclusion
The triple prerehabilitation nursing care for diabetic patients undergoing total knee replacement can promote the recovery of limb function.
