A study of the effect of cold effect rolling fit output method on pain and swelling after total knee arthroplasty
Objective To study the effect of cold effect rolling fit output method on pain and swelling after total knee arthroplasty. Methods A total of 80 patients with knee osteoarthritis who underwent total knee arthroplasty were selected and divided into a control group and an experimental group,with 40 patients in each group. The control group received conventional ice compress after surgery,and the experimental group received cold effect rolling fit output after surgery. The visual analogue scale (VAS) score,knee function score,nursing satisfaction and swelling degree before and after surgery were compared between the two groups. Results After surgery,the experimental group had lower VAS score of (3.42±1.07) points than (5.42±2.18) points in the control group,and higher knee function score of (80.27±3.96) points than (75.86±2.01) points in the control group. There were differences (P<0.05). At 72 h after surgery,the swelling degree of (2.51±0.96) cm in the experimental group was lower than (3.08±1.01) cm in the control group,and there was a difference (P<0.05). The satisfaction rate of 92.50％ in the experimental group was higher than 75.00％ in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The effect of the cold effect rolling fit output method after total knee arthroplasty is remarkable,which can relieve patients' pain and swelling,and promote the early recovery of knee function,with a good prognosis.
