Patient-centered education after hip fracture surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a parallel-group randomized controlled trial evaluating a structured, patient-centered educational program in addition to standard postoperative care for hip fracture surgery patients. Participants are randomly assigned to receive the educational program or routine care, with outcome assessment performed by a blinded evaluator. The program covers postoperative care, pain management, safe mobility, rehabilitation exercises, daily living activities, prevention of complications, and discharge planning, and is supported by an illustrated booklet. The study follows patients from preoperative assessment through hospital discharge and follow-up visits to determine effects on recovery, independence, and pain.
