Abstract

With a person’s natural aging, the prevalence of degenerative diseases increases, including the inflammation or trauma of the acetabulofemoral articulation, case in which the hip arthroplasty is the most successful response. In this context, rehabilitation nursing makes it possible to empower and capacitate the person and their family, increasing their functional capacity, diminishing their dependence for self-care, and contributing for a safe transition home. The objective od this study is to evaluate the gains in health from a program of nursing rehabilitation interventions to prepare the return home of people who underwent hip arthroplasty. The multiple-case study methodology was used, based on Orem’s Nursing Theory and Meleis’s Transition Theory. The participants were people who had undergone hip arthroplasty due to fractures or arthrosis and accepted participating in the rehabilitation program after it was explained to them. A rehabilitation nursing intervention was implemented with them, and the training results for the person’s self-care were evaluated. The knowledge they acquired was also assessed. The evaluation carried out at admission, after surgery and on the day of discharge showed improvements in the functionality of the person, also indicating that they acquired knowledge about their situation, showing gains in health that are related to the rehabilitation nursing care. There was an improvement in functionality, capacity and in empowering the people who underwent a hip arthroplasty and their families.
