Objective: To study the value of continues nursing care on improving long-term functional recovery in elderly patients after hip fracture surgery. Methods: 68 cases of elderly patients with hip fracture who got operation in our hospital from July 2013 to July 2015 were included and divided into 2 groups with 34 cases in each by random number table. All patients were treated with routine nursing care in hospital, and the control group only received routine follow-up, while the observation group hospital was treated with continues nursing care. The continues nursing care was made to extend systematic and standardized hospital care to outside through the formation of continue nursing service team, establishment of discharge visit file, establishment of continuing nursing club and other measures. After 12 months, the compliance, quality of life, hip and knee function, anxiety and depression score, and postoperative complications were compared between the 2 groups. Results: In the observation group, the rate of strictly compliance with doctor’s advice on rehabilitation exercise time and action were significantly higher than those in the control group. 12 months after intervention, scores of all dimensions in MOS SF-36 in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group. 3, 6 and 12 months after intervention, the Harris and HSS scores in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group. 12 months after intervention, HAMA and HAMD scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group. All the above differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidence rate of postoperative complications in the observation group was 12.5%, which was significantly lower than 39.4% in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Continues nursing care is helpful to improve the long-term functional recovery of hip fracture in elderly patients, and it is worth to be applied.
