Objective To explore the effect of functional exercise based on the association of activity and inertia theory for self-efficacy of patients with femoral neck fracture(FNF).Methods Sixty FNF patients who were operated in our hospital from February 2022 to March 2023 were recruited,and they were randomly assigned into the control group and the test group.All patients were managed by routine nursing intervention,and those in the test group were additionally managed by functional exercise based on association of activity and inertia theory.The aim was to compare the General Self-efficacy Scale(GSES),Harris Hip Score(HHS),activities of daily living(ADL),rate of complications.Results After intervention,GSES scores in the both groups were significantly increased than that before treatment,which increased notably in the test group compared with the control group(t= 3.475,P<0.05).After intervention,the scores of HHS and ADL in the two groups were significantly higher than those before treatment,and the improvements were more pronounced in the test group than those of the control group(P<0.05).The rate of complications of the test group was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion For FNF patients,functional exercise based on the association of activity and inertia theory can effectively improve self-efficacy and promote postoperative recovery of hip joint function,effectively prevent bedridden-related complications,thereby improving their quality of life after discharge.
