To investigate the clinical effects of huangqi Bazhen decoction combined with traditional Chinese medicine staged rehabilitation care on elderly patients undergoing hip arthroplasty. A total of 200 elderly patients who underwent hip arthroplasty in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2021 were selected and divided into routine group (100 patients) and rehabilitation group (100 patients) according to random number table method. Routine nursing was given to patients in the routine group and huangqi decoction combined with traditional Chinese medicine staged rehabilitation care was given to patients in the rehabilitation group, to compare the effects of the application in the two groups. Compared with preoperative values, Harris scores were significantly higher at 4 w and 8 w postoperatively in both groups, and the scores of the rehabilitation group were higher and significantly different from those of the routine group (p<0.05); the rehabilitation group had a higher rate of excellent hip joint than the routine group, and the difference was significant (p<0.05); all the scores on the short form-36 scale in the two groups after intervention were higher than those before intervention and those of the rehabilitation group were higher than those of the routine group, with significant differences (p<0.05); the rehabilitation group had a lower incidence of postoperative complications than the routine group (p<0.05). The combination of huangqi Bazhen decoction and traditional Chinese medicine staged rehabilitation care can promote postoperative hip recovery in elderly patients undergoing hip arthroplasty, reduce the incidence of complications such as postoperative lower extremity deep vein thrombosis and improve the quality of life of patients.
