Nursing care related to hip fracture patients' outcomes and costs

两种成功的护理策略对髋部骨折术后病人的预后有影响。首先，当护士鼓励病人术后下床活动时，并发症的发生率较低。第二，当护士解释负重的必要性，并鼓励患者在医生允许的情况下在固定腿上负重时，患者的步行能力不仅在出院时而且在术后3个月时更高。提示早期康复护理能提高髋部骨折患者的预后

Nursing care related to outcomes of hip fracture patients after surgery included twosuccessful strategies. First, when nurses encouraged patients to get out of bed after surgery, the incidence of complication was lower. Second, when nurses explained the necessity of weight bearing and encouraged patients to bear weight on the fixed leg after doctors’ permission, patients’ ambulatory ability not only at discharge but also at 3 months after surgery was higher. This study indicated that nursing care for early rehabilitation can improve hip fracture patients’ outcomes
