Randomized Controlled TrialShort-term perioperative cognitive therapy combined with rehabilitation exercise reduces the incidence of neurocognitive disorder in elderly patients: a randomized controlled trial.
To investigate whether short-term perioperative cognitive therapy combined with rehabilitation exercise decreases the incidence of neurocognitive disorder (NCD) in elderly patients who have undergone hip joint replacement surgery. This was a randomized, parallel controlled trial on elderly patients who underwent unilateral total hip joint replacement surgery at the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. ⋯ Our study indicates that perioperative cognitive therapy combined with rehabilitation exercise can effectively reduce the incidence of NCD in elderly patients after total hip joint replacement surgery.
