Objective To investigate the impact of integrated healthcare team-implemented enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol combined with nutritional support on rehabilitation outcomes of patients with femoral neck fracture undergoing total hip arthroplasty.
Methods A total of 100 patients with femoral neck fracture scheduled for total hip arthroplasty were enrolled and randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 50 patients in each group. The observation group received rehabilitation nursing approach integrating ERAS by an integrated healthcare team along with nutritional support, while the control group received conventional treatment and rehabilitation nursing.
Results The observation group demonstrated a significantly shorter time to first ambulation and postoperative length of hospital stay, as well as lower hospitalization costs compared with the control group (P<0.05). At discharge, the observation group had higher scores on the Mini-nutritional Assessment (MNA) and elevated serum indicator values compared with the control group (P<0.05). Additionally, the observation group achieved higher hip joint scores, a lower total complication rate, and greater body weight compared with the control group (P<0.05).
Conclusion The implementation of ERAS by integrated healthcare team combined with nutritional support can effectively promote the rehabilitation of patients with femoral neck fracture undergoing total hip arthroplasty, yielding favorable rehabilitation outcomes.
