Summary

This study will test a special rehabilitative nursing care program based on human caring theory for frail patients undergoing knee replacement and their caregivers. Researchers will compare the program to standard care in 50 patient-caregiver pairs. The goal is to see if the program reduces caregiver burden and improves satisfaction for both patients and caregivers.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
rehabilitative nursing care based on human caring theory
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, low-cost way to improve recovery and reduce caregiver stress after knee replacement surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The intervention is behavioral, so effects may be modest and hard to measure.
